Christ-centred care for rest, healing, and renewal

For over six years, we have provided respite, pastoral care, and therapeutic support for people living with disabilities, as well as for health professionals, carers, and others carrying heavy responsibilities. Our heart is to offer a safe, peaceful space where each person is seen, heard, and gently supported.

We work with only a small number of guests at a time, allowing care to be deeply personal and responsive to individual needs.

Therapeutic Support

Massage Therapy
Massage is available to ease physical tension, reduce stress, and support deep rest and relaxation.

Counselling & Psychotherapy
Some guests come during seasons of grief, transition, emotional struggle, or inner questioning. A listening ear, grounded in professional training and compassion, is often deeply healing.

My approach is strength-based, focusing on the resources, resilience, and inner capacities each person already holds — and gently encouraging their growth toward wholeness and a stronger sense of self.

Depending on individual needs, sessions may draw from:

  • Psychotherapy
  • Gestalt therapy
  • Transactional Analysis (T.A.)
  • Psychoanalytic approaches
  • Creative methods such as art and drama

We believe that learning to understand our emotions, responses, and needs is key to living with balance, hope, purpose, and healthy relationships.

Prayer Ministry
Prayer is at the heart of what we offer. We are released prayer ministers with VMTC NZ, and many guests have experienced profound healing and spiritual breakthrough through prayer ministry.
Testimonies of God’s healing work are shared on our website.

Each guest’s journey is unique, and we prayerfully seek to meet people where they are — offering rest, care, healing, refreshment, and gentle encouragement forward.
