Female Therapists in Alexandra, GT

My goal as counsellor is help you survive the every day turmoil. I do relaxation therapy before starting a session. This enables the client to get in a stress free mood. I will teach you coping mechanisms to handle stress, anxiety and depression. Through mindfulness counselling you will be taught how to cope with daily conflict. Mental health wellness is a program where I will work on the body and mind equilibrium.

I relate well to clients of all ages, race and cultures. My preference is for in person sessions and only offer online therapy clients with whom I have an established relationship.

I enjoy working with diverse clients across the lifespan who experience challenges which may affect their daily functioning within numerous contexts. One of my key interests include how individuals are able to think, perceive, behave and adapt within a multitude of environments. Psychotherapy is offered within a nurturing, empathetic, connecting and safe space. Goals for clients differ and this often comprises of creating awareness, gaining insight, establishing purpose and growth, processing of difficult emotions, and to develop effective coping mechanisms to assist clients in their life journey.

As a counsellor, I work with my clients to find positive coping mechanisms. I deal with emotional and behavioural problems. This refers to things like depression, anxiety, stress, aggression etc. I also help with relationship problems, not just romantic relationships, but friendships and parent-child relationships as well. I also work with clients who have been through traumatic situations, both recent and in the past, and I offer grief counselling. I use many different therapeutic techniques and offer counselling for children, adults, and teenagers.

We often find ourselves facing overwhelming circumstances at all different stages of our lives in which we need guidance, support, and a safe space to speak and be heard.

Have you been struggling to deal with trauma, grief, anxiety, stress, relationships, and everyday life problems? Do you feel like you’re trying to overcome it, but nothing is working? This can be very frustrating, painful, and confusing. Unfortunately, many people learn to live with these feelings and struggles. It can lead to a negative, unhappy, and unfulfilled life, which can cause more anxiety, stress, problems, trauma, and grief.

The Individuals that feel as though no-one will understand or who have been told time and time again that they are the ones at fault, either in their relationships or at work. The individuals who feel alone and who cannot speak out due to hidden manipulation and control within a home or who are insidiously abused within a relationship. The individuals who feel that they are the ones who have destroyed their families lives, the individuals who want a safe space, a listening ear and supportive dialogue. The individual who wants clarity of mind, effective coping mechanisms and understanding, these are the individuals I counsel.

Being human means facing a life with painful moments. Whether you’re searching for a way through the pain, are learning to live with a mental illness, or are trying to make sense of your existence, we can walk the road together.

I am a clinical psychologist in private practice, consulting in Cosmo City. I offer a safe and empathic space for my clients to come to a better understanding of themselves, their emotions and behaviours.

Please note I am currently on maternity leave to April ‘24. I enjoy working with individuals who want to understand their minds and how their past and present may impact their futures. I focus on talk-based therapy by creating a harmonious and safe relationship to explore you and your life together. I don't work in a way that is directly focused on solving specific problems, and prefer to work with individuals happy to join me in a journey of healing and growth over a longer term. I am not a therapist who will tell you what to do, or give a lot of advice, and that may be best found with someone else if that is what you need.

I am a Specialist Registered Counsellor based in Alberto and Randburg. My ideal client seeks to attain holistic Wellbeing. Mental, physical and social. I assist with Trauma, Anxiety, Depression , grief and life changes events. I create a space which allows clients to express themselves in any SA language they are comfortable in.

Although I predominantly work from an integrated Psychodynamic (insight-based) approach as well as Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT). I do however incorporate other modalities. As my main focus is to meet the client’s needs by tailoring my therapeutic interventions specifically to benefit the client. I value working relationally with individuals, understanding the dynamics between myself and the client, gaining insight into their world beyond the therapy space, and going at their necessary pace, to encourage growth, empowerment, and strategies towards psychological wellbeing and self-acceptance.

I am passionate about supporting people with anything they bring to the session. I offer a safe space and I listen. I want to work with my clients to safely explore their thoughts and feelings. Together, we can uncover roadblocks and find new ways to deal with stress and conflict. Explore possibilities and rediscover motivation. Learn how to be more compassionate with yourself. I believe everyone has the potential to thrive, and I would like to help my clients find their unique path.

I work with adults and adolescents who may be feeling very sad and want to make some changes in their lives.

I also work with couples wishing to improve their relationship. I am an LGBTQ-friendly practitioner.

Each Counselling service approach is tailored to the clients’ needs, circumstances, systemic context, and characteristics. These significant factors inform the collaborative nature of interventions and counselling plans developed in the professional working relationship with clients. This is achieved through the use of holistic considerations, as well as integrated frameworks, techniques, modalities, and professional practices. These counselling services are offered to individuals, couples, families, and groups, of adults and adolescents.

I have training and experience in working with mood, anxiety, psychosis, and personality disorders; grief; relational issues; and behaviour.
