Face to face counselling referral request

OUTLine NZ offers a face to face counselling service that is affirming of diverse sexuality and gender identities.

Please note - this is not a crisis or emergency counselling service. If you need help now, call 1737 to talk to a trained counsellor. Always dial 111 if you (or someone else) is in danger.

In person sessions are available in central Auckland and Wellington, with Skype and other options available nationally. Find out more about OUTLine's counselling services on our website.

As part of assessing your referral, OUTLine will discuss with you payment for services. We have a scale from $100 to $80 dependant on ability to pay, and in some cases are able to support your application to WINZ Disability Allowance to cover the cost of sessions.
