Testimonials

“I have had the privilege of working alongside Tony in several professional contexts. In his work as a Supervisor, Therapist and advocate for those in critical need of counselling, I know Tony to be utterly dependable, compassionate and competent. I have referred individuals of various ages into Tony's care as a counsellor, and have been deeply moved to see the signs of their empowerment and even transformation. I have witnessed Tony's involvement in NGO and community-focussed work, and acknowledge that Taranaki is blessed to be resourced with a therapist who is both rigorous in terms of best practice; yet understands and embodies the vital importance of play and laughter.”

- Jamie Allen, Chair of Taranaki Retreat Trust, and former Dean of Taranaki Cathedral.

"I love seeing Tony as he helps me get my bad feelings out and good feelings in.”

- Jenny 9 years old

“I have experienced Tony Wooding from the perspective of a long term private client and later as a supervisor for my own private practice work. Utilising an accomplished skill and knowledge base, Tony assisted me to find my own path in my own way through a variety of issues and provided the space in which I needed to do this. I have found Tony to be compassionate, perceptive and consistent in his approach. He encourages self-reflection and personal growth. Tony also demonstrates strong boundaries, clear ethics and the utmost confidentiality. I have no hesitation in strongly recommending Tony as a practitioner.”

- Stacey Waterson, MA AT (Clinical) (Hons)

“Lately I've been spending one hour a month with Tony, during which time he encourages me, educates me, supports me and challenges me - all in a respectful and positive way. At the end of our sessions I always have some new insights to ponder, new strategies to try out and fresh inspiration.”
