1:1 Mental Wellbeing Coaching in New Zealand

Personalized Coaching for mental wellbeing offers the fastest way to break free from painful self doubt, overwhelm, anxiety, stress or low confidence.

If you feel stuck in a cycle of self-doubt, overwhelm, low mood or anxiety I would love for you to honor yourself and reset your mental peace.

Imagine waking up feeling excited about the day ahead and to show up feeling happy and confident in your own skin, ready to deal with whatever challenges are coming your way.

I am here to help you create lasting change. In my 1 on 1 coaching sessions, based in Nelson or online across New Zealand, the focus is on you and your journey towards lasting mental wellbeing.

I will guide you to uncover underlying thought patterns, old habits and limiting beliefs that hold you back from living your life with joy, purpose and unapologetic personal self - expression.

Coaching is not just about problem solving, it is about aligning your mindset, your subconscious beliefs and behavior, to create lasting change. The tools and techniques you’ll learn will support you to move through life with clarity, confidence, and resilience.

1:1 sessions are an investment of NZ$125 for 60min, package options are available below

  • “Marisa is an amazing coach. I never felt “coached” but more so just listened to and understood. She gently uncovers the root causes of issues, quickly identifying and articulating them without judging. It is a very safe and caring environment. She also gives practical exercises which helped me feel like I was capable of creating lasting change for myself outside of my time with her.”

    Highly recommend!

  • “Marisa is an excellent coach.

    She really helped me at a time where I was extremely low. She was supportive, attentive and showed great empathy. She takes a holistic and client centered approach and honed in on what was important to me to work on to improve my life but in a way that was manageable for me. I really appreciate the support that Marisa had given me and would recommend her to other people looking to improve their lives, I’m very grateful Marisa …

    Thank you!”

  • “Marisa has helped me to improve my confidence in myself and my relationship. I didn't know what to expect from life coaching and have found it to be an amazing experience where I have learnt lots of tools to help myself manage my thoughts and feelings which I did not gain from past counselling based therapy. I always felt understood and never judged.”

  • “I feel incredibly blessed to have received coaching from Marisa. She is an incredible listener who met me right where I was in every session. Her warmth and depth of care made me feel safe and open enough to share a lot of my journey with her, to which I received valuable reflections, insights, and skillful guidance in response. I'd recommend Marisa in a heartbeat and look forward to working with her more in the future.”

  • “I came to Marisa in a lot of a mess having just split from my wife and feeling very isolated and alone. Marisa created a safe environment for me to talk.

    She led me through issues, but allowed me time to think things through on my terms.

    As we unpacked the feelings I had both about my personal and professional life, Marisa empowered me to think differently about situations.

    Marisa is amazing!”

    S. 2022

  • “Starting out in a whole new profession can be a daunting exercise.

    After seeking the support of Marisa, I feel more confident and clear about how to proceed. In addition to her unwavering professionalism, she has a finely tuned intuition that always seems to know the perfect question to ask at the right time. This, in addition to her effervescent approachability, aligns her perfectly with her job as a life coach.

    I recommend her services wholeheartedly!”
