Research that honours the
wellbeing of the people in Aotearoa New Zealand

Our vision is to engage in research and relationships that serve to honour the wellbeing of the people in the land of Aotearoa New Zealand. We do this by prioritising our underserved communities in Aotearoa New Zealand, with our focus on tangata Whenua and building, enhancing and maintaining authentic partnerships and relationships with industry, professions, education and community.

As we are academics and practitioners from the disciplines of psychotherapy, counselling and psychology, and represent tangata Whenua and tangata Tiriti, including tangata Moana, our research interests prioritise strengthening practice, promoting whānau voices and enhancing education.
