Penny-Laine Calitz

Counsellor
Specialised support for 
Anxiety, Coaching, Depression

I’m a registered counsellor based in Orewa, available for in-person sessions Thursdays and Fridays, and online across Aotearoa. I support adults, students, and parents navigating a range of challenges including anxiety, stress, emotional regulation, burnout, identity issues, family dynamics, and adjustment to life transitions. My practice blends evidence-based tools from ACT, DBT, and person-centred therapy, alongside nervous system regulation strategies. Whether you’re juggling work and parenting, feeling disconnected, or struggling with overwhelm, I offer a calm, supportive space to reconnect with your values and move forward. Originally from South Africa, I bring a culturally sensitive and faith-affirming perspective when requested, and I honour the diverse backgrounds of the clients I work with.
