Coming Soon: Whakapakari Ora & EAP Services (Habit Health Network)

Whakapakari Ora is preparing to join the provider network for EAP Services, part of the wider Habit Health whānau. This will allow eligible clients to access Rongoā Māori, mirimiri, and hauora coaching through their workplace wellbeing programme.

We are currently in the final stages of onboarding — including police vetting and confirmation of cultural practice standards — and will update this page once services go live.

What Will Be Available Through EAP?

Once registered, Whakapakari Ora will offer the following services through eligible EAP referrals:

• Mirimiri and kōmiri (Māori therapeutic bodywork)
• Whakawhiti kōrero (Māori talk therapy)
• Rongoā Rākau and spiritual healing
• Hauora coaching grounded in mātauranga Māori

These services will be delivered by our registered kairongoā and hauora practitioners in Christchurch (Ōtautahi) and online.

Who Can Access This?

Many workplaces across the motu offer EAP Services through their HR or wellbeing teams. EAP Services is part of Habit Health, which also supports Māori-led hauora through Ngā Kaihāpai, their national Māori provider network.

You may be eligible if:

• Your employer partners with EAP Services
• You’ve been referred for wellbeing or cultural support
• You are based in Aotearoa and require kaupapa Māori-based healing

👉 Check with your HR team or visit eapservices.co.nz to find out if you're covered.

In the Meantime…

Until our onboarding is complete, you’re welcome to:

• Book privately via our Bookings page
• Join our newsletter for updates
• Refer your employer to EAP Services or Habit Health if they don’t already offer support
