When every day is a struggle
For adults and adolescents living with mental health problems, every day is a struggle. Relating to the outside world feels like an insurmountable challenge and treatment seems never-ending. Because of this, Dr Rui Mendel uses an open, caring approach underpinned by his philosophy that “less is best”. Patients experience the briefest, most effective treatment possible with the longest lasting benefits.
When mental and behavioural health problems compromise basic functioning, patients arrive at a crossroads: reach out for support and treatment, or continue as things are. With over 28 years experience as a Psychiatrist, Dr Mendel has treated hundreds of clients, successfully guiding them towards the functional, meaningful life they hope to achieve.
Dr Mendel offers a service giving assessment and treatment for a variety of psychological problems including depression, anxiety, occupational stress, psychological trauma and sleep disorders.
For some patients with depression who have not responded, cannot tolerate medication, or prefer a medication-free treatment, we offer Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy (TMS) - a non-invasive and effective treatment for depression. We are proud to be the first to make this treatment available in New Zealand.
So, if you, a friend or family member is suffering from a mood, anxiety, stress, or any mental or psychological problem, Aesculapius is an open, caring practice with a wealth of international experience in helping people in distress.

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
