I am a Clinical Psychologist in part-time private practice in Krugersdorp, West Rand. I have undergone training that focused on systems theory. Hence, the focus of therapy is dealing with client's difficulties by addressing the interactional conflicts and stressors between the client, significant others and their environment. A general systems model holds that families are systems and that every action in a family produces a reaction in one or more of its members. However, I utilise a range of therapeutic modalities in order to suit the needs of clients.

Embarking on the path to self-discovery and healing can be both courageous and daunting. It takes strength to recognise the need for support and seek help. If you're here, you've already taken a significant step toward prioritising your well-being, and I want to acknowledge the courage it takes to begin this journey. I understand that the decision to start therapy is not always an easy one. It can be accompanied by a range of emotions – from hope and anticipation to uncertainty and vulnerability. Rest assured, this is a safe space where your experiences are honored, and you're met with empathy and understanding.

Everyone today is facing many challenges and lack of belongingness within the society. The difficult circumstances that they face are because of limited opportunities, viable employment and health and social services. These challenges that they endure affect them both internally and externally which can be overwhelming and thus inhibits them from reaching their full potential.

Substance Use Counsellors

How do substance and drug recovery or rehabilitation programs work?

In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other clients in recovery; in outpatient programs, individuals reside at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counsellors, and psychotherapists. Staff often also includes people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other methods.

How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?

Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.

How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for substance use reduce the amount of drugs they consume. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.

Are there specific medications for substance and drug use?

There are medications approved to treat substance use disorder—such as buprenorphine, methadone, naltrexone, and acamprosate. These medications do help people cope with substance use as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone can help reduce cravings, methadone is an opioid medication used to treat severe pain, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.
