I am a counsellor specialising in Asperger Syndrome/Autism. My name is Natasha Delgarno,  I have worked with autistic and neurodiverse adults and youth since 2007 and have been counselling in private practice since 2016.  I work primarily with adults and couples.  

• Asperger Syndrome, Autism Spectrum in adults
• Relationships where one or both partners have traits of Asperger Syndrome/Autism
• Support for parents of children with Autism/Asperger Syndrome

I am guided by the ideas and practices of Narrative Therapy, Collaborative Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. My approach is one of acceptance and respect for individuality, difference and diversity, interest in people's areas of strength and ability, and collaboratively exploring ideas and solutions.  I do not view Autism as a set of deficits, but rather a unique wiring that comes with strengths and challenges.

An awareness of social justice comes into my practice along with recognising the ways that social and cultural norms can impact on people in their lives. Each person's individual cognitive style is taken into account and I check in regularly to ensure that counselling is helpful.  I adhere to the NZAC Code of Ethics and attend regular supervision.  

Online or telephone consultations are available for clients who do not live in Auckland.

Please feel free to contact me to discuss your needs.
