Hear from our clinicians
I am passionate about supporting our whaiora and their whanau as they navigate meth addiction and move towards recovery. I have a lived experience with meth addiction, having used meth for 16 years and experienced multiple incarcerations.
Today, I am proud to say that I have been clean for 11 years. I hold a degree in counselling and am a qualified AOD practitioner. My journey enables me to connect deeply with our whaiora and offer them hope and guidance on their path to recovery. - Sara
This is my eighth year with Meth Help, a position of which I am just as passionate about today as I was when I joined 8 years ago.
I have had my own lived journey with Meth addiction, my motivation for stopping was both my children and my husband. I feel privileged to support people in their own journey of self-discovery as they navigate change.
