Our 75-minute consultations offer a holistic approach to healing that goes far beyond mirimiri alone, weaving together whakawhitiwhiti kōrero, pūrākau therapy, honohono, ritenga, karakia, and the use of rongoā plant medicine to support tinana, hinengaro, wairua, and mauri. Each session is guided by what is needed in that moment, recognising that healing is relational, spiritual, and embodied, and that true recovery comes from restoring balance across all aspects of wellbeing, not just treating symptoms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"section-peopleText\" class=\"content-section field\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"section-header\"\u003eMore about Our Kaimahi\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTe Raumahora Hema – ACC Registered Rongoā Māori Practitioner\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eTe Raumahora Hema is an ACC-registered Rongoā Māori practitioner, life coach, qualified cultural supervisor, facilitator, and cultural consultant with over 12 years of experience in rongoā Māori and 20 years working in the health and social services industry for NGOs and government organisations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQualifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBachelor's Degree in Mātauranga Māori\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMaster's Degree in Māori and Indigenous Leadership\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDiploma Level 5 in Rongoā Māori\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDiploma in Mātauranga Māori\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eProfessional accreditations and certifications in:\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLife Coaching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSupervision for Health and Social Services Professionals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eTe Reo Māori Advanced and Full Immersion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePou Pou Karanga Cert 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHealth Promotion Certificate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eYouth Work Cert 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eTikanga\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMāori Business and Management Cert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDeescalation Training\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eYouth Mental Health First Aid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFirst Aid Certificate \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eTe Raumahora brings a depth of knowledge and extensive practical experience across healing, leadership, and cultural practice, offering comprehensive support grounded in mātauranga Māori and tikanga.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"section-referralOptions\" class=\"content-section field\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"section-header\"\u003eAges\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdult \/ Pakeke, Child \/ Tamariki, Older adult \/ Kaumātua, Youth \/ Rangatahi\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"section-visits\" class=\"content-section field\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"section-header\"\u003eHow do I access this service?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eContact us\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eReferral\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo access support from ACC, you will need to contact them first. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhone 0800 101 996\u003cbr\u003eEmail claims@acc.co.nz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll need to ask for a purchase order number.
