What would it feel like to finally tell your story - and be truly heard?
Imagine having a space where you don’t need to be strong. Where you don’t have to minimise what happened. Where your experience matters — exactly as it was for you. Imagine feeling clearer, lighter, more grounded in yourself. Not because someone “fixed” you — but because you were given time, understanding and space to make sense of it. You don’t have to keep carrying it alone.
I’m here to walk beside you.
Liz Greene, Midwife Specialist, New Zealand
Hi - I'm Liz
I’ve spent over 20 years working as a midwife and nurse alongside women and families throughout Aotearoa New Zealand. My professional background includes postgraduate study in Well Child and Counselling, and experience as a Plunket Tamariki Ora Nurse.
Over the years, I have supported women through pregnancy, birth, early motherhood and loss — and I have also worked closely with health professionals navigating the demands of clinical practice. My work today brings these two worlds together.
For women, I offer a safe, non-judgemental space to reflect, process and make sense of your experience through counselling.
For midwives and nurses, I provide confidential professional supervision — a structured space to reflect, grow and maintain resilience within your practice.
Whether you are seeking personal support or professional guidance, I offer calm, compassionate, confidential sessions online throughout New Zealand.
How I Support You
Heard
What does it mean to truly be heard? To be able to talk freely about your experience, in your own words, how it was for you. To be able to talk freely about your inner most thoughts in an environment where you are the focus. To talk freely with no judgement, no preconceived ideas, just compassion, reflection and confidentiality.
Held
Although I can't give you a hug, I'm here to support you and make space for your important conversations—this time is for you. Through holding space, brave conversations can happen, those wonderful ‘a-ha’ moments of self-reflection, which can enable growth.
Helped
Do you want practical advice? Do you want to discuss what you have tried in your parenting journey and what you would like to try? Through helping, I can support and offer guidance so that you can be the parent you want to be in a non-judgemental, compassionate and knowledgeable environment.

This is for you if...
You’re preparing for birth
Pregnancy can bring excitement, uncertainty and everything in between. You may be seeking a calm, experienced voice to walk alongside you — someone with no agenda, just support, understanding and space to talk things through.
You’re processing a birth experience
Whether your birth felt empowering, overwhelming, confusing or simply unresolved, you may find yourself wanting to revisit and make sense of what happened. You deserve the opportunity to reflect on your experience in a safe and supportive environment.
You’re navigating early motherhood
Motherhood can be joyful and deeply challenging, sometimes all at once. If you’re feeling anxious, unsure, or simply in need of a space that centres you as a woman — not just as a mother — this is a place for honest, compassionate conversation.
You’re experiencing pregnancy loss or change
Grief, confusion and unexpected emotions can follow pregnancy loss or change. Having a confidential space to talk, reflect and be gently supported can help you process your experience at your own pace.
You’re a midwife or nurse seeking professional supervision
Working in healthcare brings responsibility, emotional load and complexity. Professional supervision offers a confidential space to reflect, debrief, strengthen boundaries and support your ongoing wellbeing in practice.
Kind Words
Before working with Liz, our daughter was waking every two hours through the night. The only way to get her back to sleep was rocking or pacing around the room, and even then putting her down was 50/50 whether she’d stay asleep. She was exhausted, and so were we. We were completely at breaking point.
From the beginning, Liz was amazing. We shared that we didn’t want to let our daughter cry and that we were looking for a gentle approach that would work for our whole family — including our toddler. Liz really listened. She created a plan tailored to us, something realistic that worked both at home and even when we were away. She supported us day and night, checking in regularly, offering reassurance, and adjusting things when needed. She was caring, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable — always explaining why certain approaches would work best for our daughter.
At a time when we truly felt at the end of our rope, Liz saved our sanity. We honestly can’t speak highly enough of her experience and expertise. Liz really is the baby bible! – Jacquita
