Counselling and care for whānau experiencing intergenerational trauma, abuse and violence, fostering healing, cultural connection and long-term transformation.
Mātanga Oranga provides Kaupapa Māori-based counselling and care for whānau experiencing the impacts of intergenerational trauma, abuse, and violence. Guided by tikanga and whakawhānaungatanga, this approach connects with wairua, uplifts cultural identity, and supports long-term transformation, particularly for Māori in West Auckland.
Personalised, holistic care for whānau
Engagement with wairuatanga (spirituality) is an essential part of the healing journey, fostering connection to cultural identity and creating opportunities for self-expression. Healing practices may include group work, creative expression, and connection with the environment, alongside waiata (song), karakia (prayer), and other tikanga Māori methods that restore wairua and strengthen resilience.
