Counselling shouldn’t be a luxury only for people with spare cash.
Yet so many people are doing it tough financially and miss out on support because counselling feels “too expensive”.
At Wingspan, we’re here to change that.
We offer affordable counselling options and do our best to keep cost from being a barrier. If money is tight, we can kōrero about:
Lower-cost or reduced-fee options
Short-term, focused sessions
Finding a plan that works for your budget
If you’re unsure whether you can afford counselling, please reach out – it’s absolutely okay to ask about cost. 💬
🧠 Quick wellbeing tip:
When we’re stressed, many of us are barely breathing – taking tiny, shallow breaths without even noticing. This can keep our body stuck in “on edge” mode.
Try this micro-practice you can do anywhere:
🌱Pause – notice your shoulders and jaw.
🌱Soften – gently drop your shoulders, unclench your jaw.
🌱Take 3 slow breaths – in through the nose, out through the mouth, longer on the exhale.
Even a few calm breaths can signal to your nervous system: “I’m safe enough right now.”
You don’t have to do this alone. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and money is a worry, we’re here to āwhina/support.
