Tanya.Furstenburg

Tanya Furstenburg is our Rotorua Senior Consultant

I am a clinical psychologist working online and in Rotorua.  I specialize in working with couples who are experiencing sexual difficulties.  I’m particularly interested in desire difficulties where one or both partners are not that interested or have lost their interest in sex over time, or couples dealing with recovering after an affair.   I also work with individuals and have experience in treating erectile difficulties, ejaculation issues, difficulties with reaching orgasm and out of control sexual behaviour like porn “addiction” or multiple affairs.

I am cisgendered, heterosexual and European and I enjoy working with people from diverse backgrounds and sexual identity and -orientation. My approach is informal, warm, non-judgmental, and cooperative.  I rely heavily on feedback from my clients about what their needs are, what they want to get from therapy and which parts of my approach they find most helpful.

I am the co-owner of a private practice in Rotorua, where I have been for 8 years now.  I have more than 20 years of experience in consulting with a wide range of people, including those struggling with sexual and relationship difficulties, folks dealing with symptoms of serious mental illness, the effects of trauma, grief, anxiety and depression, or other everyday problems with change or stage of life adjustments.

My fee is $250 (incl gst) per 50 minute session.  For couple therapy, I only offer 1.5 hour sessions at a cost of $375 (incl gst).

Please also be aware that once made, appointments not kept or cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice will be charged. This service is only available to people who are in New Zealand at the time of the consult or to New Zealanders travelling overseas.
