The Magician and the Lovers: A Therapeutic Group for Creatives and Thinkers
Welcome to “The Magician and the Lovers”, a unique group for men and women from all walks of creative and intellectual life. Designed for artists, musicians, writers, actors, philosophers, and culturally curious minds, this group offers a safe and confidential space for personal growth, connection, and learning.
This is more than a group; it is a sanctuary where creative individuals can authentically share their experiences, navigate challenges, and find support in a therapeutic environment. Whether you face the struggles of self-expression, the pressure to perform, or the search for meaning in your work and life, this group provides a space to grow both as a person and as an artist.
In our sessions, we focus on key themes to support and inspire participants:
– Authentic Sharing: Discuss the realities of creative life in a safe, non-judgmental environment.
– Personal and Creative Growth: Explore tools and practices to deepen self-awareness and sustain inspiration.
– Connection and Belonging: Build meaningful relationships with others who understand the creative path.
– Philosophy and Insight: Engage with thought-provoking discussions on purpose, culture, and creativity.
– Therapeutic Learning: Reflect on personal challenges and learn strategies to thrive both personally and professionally.
As an experienced therapist and group facilitator, I ensure that sessions are thoughtfully structured to promote trust, learning, and transformation. Together, we create an atmosphere where every participant feels heard, valued, and supported.
Whether you’re an artist seeking inspiration, a thinker navigating life’s big questions, or simply someone who values creativity and connection, The Magician and the Lovers provides the space you need to grow, reflect, and thrive.

Kia ora - A warm Hello!
I'm Steffen
I am a qualified Diplom‑Pädagoge with studies in Psychology, Education, and Sociology (NZQA Level 8), certified in Psychotherapy, and registered as a Provisional Member of the New Zealand Association of Counsellors (NZAC). I am also a member of the New Zealand Association of Positive Psychology (NZAPP). My practice is grounded in evidence‑based therapeutic approaches, informed by current research and decades of clinical experience.
Since immigrating from Germany in 2009, I have lived and worked in Whitianga on the Coromandel Peninsula. As a father of two, I bring a lived understanding of family life, development, and the complexities of human relationships.
For more than 25 years, I have supported individuals, couples, families, and groups across cultures and life stages. I offer a calm, relational, and trauma‑informed space where you can feel safe, understood, and supported to create meaningful change.
If you’re considering counselling, I warmly invite you to make contact.
