The Transform Pathway
At Transformed Therapy New Zealand, healing is a journey
One that unfolds step by step, honouring your unique experiences and needs
Our signature Transform Pathway is a proven, holistic framework designed to guide you through that journey with compassion, clarity, and empowerment
​
Whether you’re in the early or later stages of eating disorder recovery, managing anxiety or depression, or navigating significant life changes, the Transform Pathway provides a supportive roadmap for sustainable transformation
What is the Transform Pathway?
The Transform Pathway is a 5-stage approach that supports your healing on multiple levels: emotional, physical, mental, relational, and spiritual.
It is rooted in trauma-informed care, cultural responsiveness, and evidence-based methods, but most importantly, it adapts to fit your pace and priorities.

Stage 1: Tending the Ground
Laying the foundation for growth
Before healing can begin, safety comes first.
In this stage, we focus on creating a grounded, supportive space where you can feel seen, heard, and stable.
Whether you’re navigating disordered eating, anxiety, depression, trauma, big life changes or are wanting a space to talk, we gently tend to the immediate challenges and help you build the trust, tools, and rhythms needed to move forward.
Stage 2: Reconnection
Coming home to your body and daily life
Once the ground is steady, we begin rebuilding a sense of connection — to your body, your needs, your routine, and your sense of self.
This stage supports you in developing nourishing habits, body awareness, and self care practices that anchor your everyday life and support emotional balance.


Stage 3: Awareness and Alignment
Exploring what’s underneath
This is where deeper transformation begins. We gently explore the beliefs, patterns, and experiences that have shaped your struggles — from body image and self-worth to trauma, grief, or identity shifts.
Together, we rewrite the narratives that no longer serve you and align your healing with your values, vision, and inner truth.
Stage 4: Nurturing Support
Building strong, supportive connections
You don’t have to do this alone.
In this stage, we focus on strengthening the relationships and systems around you whether that means building a support team, setting healthy boundaries, or fostering a sense of belonging.
You’ll gain tools to ask for what you need and to feel supported as you grow.


Stage 5: Self-Led Growth
Stepping into your next chapter
Healing and growth aren’t linear — they’re lifelong.
This final stage is about sustaining the progress you’ve made, trusting your inner voice, and feeling confident navigating life ahead.
Whether you’re focused on relapse prevention, ongoing self-care, or expanding your sense of purpose, we’ll support you to keep growing with strength, softness, and self-trust.
