Regather your energy for a positive future.
Regather intends to provide a range of accessible online (zoom) and phone therapeutic support services that are uniquely catered to any young person (12 years+), adult and/or couple’s presenting needs.
Regather works from a relationship-focused model, whereby building a connection with people is valued as being necessary in being able to establish trust, respect and engage in a reflective conversation that evokes change. We value peoples right to choice, celebrate differences and are committed to doing no more harm.
Working from a holistic perspective, we understand that things in life are often not simple. Which is why Regather takes the time to firstly understand what type of support or problem people are trying to solve. This way we can determine what type of support is required and should Regather not be the ideal support option or additional support is required, a referral of support will be offered.
