His approach is friendly, inclusive, respectful, and down to earth. He is particularly interested in how, through the challenges in our lives, we can grow as human beings, and develop a greater sense of fulfillment and purpose.
Sirr works in Auckland with both men and women, couples, teenage boys, and supervises counsellors, group facilitators and community workers. He is experienced with a range of issues – anger and stress management, grief, relationship issues, depression, anxiety, Post-traumatic stress, and abuse.
