About Us

Caleb Johnston has been working with children and young people for a long time in different capacities. Caleb trained and worked here in Tauranga and really loves being a part of this city. As a teenager he was always involved in volunteer and youth programs as connecting with people has always come naturally to him. Growing up in the Waikato, Caleb has a Bachelor of Counselling through BTI, and decided to set up his private practice in early 2018 to support his growing family.

As a male counsellor in his late 20’s, he is uniquely positioned to connect well with and relate to young people. He is well connected in Tauranga and has built good relationships with local support services. He is glad to be practicing counselling in Tauranga.

Welcome to CJ Counselling

Being young is no simple thing. Youth and young adults face all kinds of complicated challenges that early life throws at them and then some. The growing independence, search of identity and meaning, and increased expectations are all things that every young person goes through on top of everything else in their lives. Caleb has experience in connecting and working with young people to help them navigate these challenging years, assisting them in being who they want to be in life.

Caleb is trained in Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Solutions Focused Brief Therapy. Using these combined with leading information on brain development and neuropsychology we can work through issues whilst helping clients to thrive and have the best chance they can, at the future they want.

Physical environment

Based out of a home office in Judea, Tauranga, it is welcoming and warm, and has comfortable seating with lots of natural light. There is plenty of on-road parking and a direct entrance to the office.

Atmosphere

A welcoming atmosphere where people are greeted outside, shown in, and offered something to drink. The processes and polices around confidentiality are clearly explained. Children are offered creative ways to express themselves and feel more comfortable though the use of drawing, sand play and other creative expressions.

Caleb works with people of all ages and backgrounds, providing a safe space for clients to be heard, understood and supported. Contact him today for an informal chat about how he can help.
