Counselling for Older Adults
A bit stuck and would like some strategies to help you cope?
Are you over 65 or do you support someone who is over 65?
Would you like to chat to someone about some things you may be struggling with? These may be changes in health, living situations, finances, mobility, physical or mental health and also changing relationships with family/whanau.
Age Concern Counties Manukau can provide a service across the whole Counties Manukau region, (including Franklin), thanks to 4 of the Local Boards in our region; Manurewa, Howick, Papakura and Mangere/Otahuhu - First Sovereign Trust and SKYCITY Auckland Community Trust.
Our Counsellor, Nicole, is qualified and experienced, with an affinity and empathy for older people and the issues that concern them. She is a person centered counsellor and believes we are all worthy of, and deserve dignity. As a person-centered counsellor, the foundation she works from is the high intimacy of the client/therapist relationship, and the sincere dialogue between two human beings. Always safe, always ethical.
Please get in touch to discuss further.

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Boundaries of Adaptation - An exhibition by Nina Bulgakova
Boundaries of Adaptation
An exhibition by Nina Bulgakova
28 February - 18 March
Community Gallery Space - Franklin Arts Centre
Opening Event: Saturday 28 February, 10am
Adaptation is often understood as the ability to adjust to an environment, to accept its conditions and become less visible within it. In this body of work, the focus shifts to a different moment, the point at which adaptation reaches its limit and begins to form a boundary.
This boundary is not a gesture of refusal or isolation. It appears as a need to define how interaction with the outside world takes place. Not to shut it out, but to stay in contact while maintaining a sense of stability. Here, the boundary is not an opposition, but a way of reaching agreement.
The works take the form of wall-mounted sculptural objects, where the boundary becomes material and physically present. Within these objects, it is expressed through weight, density, surface, and tension of form, shifting from an abstract idea into a direct experience.
