Are you concerned about a family member, a good friend or yourself?
Relating to Depression, Anxiety, Grief, Trauma, Illness and Stress or just feeling overwhelmed with life then give me a call. I have been facilitating 7-28 day live-in health retreats in New Zealand for 14 years and am open to discuss a non live-in option where you would receive the same program content more spread over several weeks. Initially we just would talk by phone or skype and see if what I can offer is something worth considering and we will take it from there. My retreats are based on a one on one basis and so will any program we would discuss so to stay focused on the goals of the one needing some support right now. For more information please phone me at 020 41741215. I can give you a website link then if you are interested where you can read more about my retreat work but also the therapies I offer to support people in crisis. Even if you decide not go ahead with what I am offering you still can contact me. I may be able to point you in the suitable direction to get the support you are looking for. Kind thoughts, Peter
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
