Rowan Peck

I was born in the UK, where I lived before immigrating to NZ as a teenager with my family. I went to school in South Canterbury – which I still think of as home. After leaving school I worked in emergency services for around ten years before training as a psychologist, an area I still maintain a strong interest in.

 

After completing my training as a Clinical Psychologist I worked a few years in the disability sector, primarily providing assessment and support for people of all ages with neurodiversity and disabilities. I then worked for a number of years as a rural psychologist in adult community specialist mental health. Growing up in a multigenerational farming family has given me insight into some of the unique challenges faced by rural communities. I currently work half my week at Te Whatu Ora, and half my week in private practice.

 

I provide evidence based psychological assessments and therapy for adults across a range of difficulties, and have training and experience using a number of different therapy modalities, including CBT, ACT, EMDR, PBS, DBT, and MCT.
