We address, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem/confidence and relationships. Read our Google reviews to decide if our results are something you may be interested in.

I am mostly a systems theorist. I believe if we can heal the system that impact you (past, present, family, health, spirituality, trauma, relationships) you will be able to move at your own healthy pace toward strength and victory. I work attachment-based as I believe our family or origin is the classroom where we were taught how to do life and relationships.

I use an integral life coaching approach. This combines CBT therapeutic techniques with coaching exercises, to start actively working on the area of your life that you would like more from. Coaching is short-term and goal-directed (approx 4-6 sessions). My passion is supporting people who want to get more from life. Themes that I coach clients on, include: Communication, health/lifestyle, addictive behaviours, re-evaluating life goals, relationships, burnout, procrastination, anxiety, creating new habits and pursuing & achieving goals. I offer in-person coaching or online sessions.

I have a passion for working with children, adolescents and young adults. In my practice, I strive to facilitate every child's growth for them to be able to reach their full potential. My special interests include psycho-educational assessments, therapeutic interventions, career guidance and assessments and school readiness assessments. I employ an integrated approach to assessment and therapy to address various challenges that my clients may face. By doing so, it allows me to design interventions that are person-centered. I also work collaboratively with schools and other professionals. I am fully bilingual (Afrikaans and English).

Is your child struggling to regulate his/her emotions? Does your child get into trouble at school, get called lazy, inattentive, disruptive? Is your child not fulfilling his or her fullest potential -- academically, socially, emotionally?

My ideal client is someone who has a need for therapy, but may find it difficult to talk about their issues. Words may seem limited to describe what they feel inside of themselves. Child clients sometimes don't know or understand the extent of their unhappiness, or are too young to know that they are mentally and emotionally affected by circumstances. My ideal client is someone who suffers from trauma and early childhood wounding, or presents an array of other clinical presentations, including depression, anxiety disorders and much more. Clients seek therapy because they have a desire to be healed and emotionally be in balance.

As a counseling psychologist with a background in working with children with cognitive and behavioral issues, as well as guiding parents on coping and dealing with the pressures of raising children, my passion lies in helping individuals and families navigate through their challenges and find a path towards growth and well-being. My approach to counseling is integrative, drawing from various therapeutic modalities, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, play therapy, and family systems therapy. I believe in tailoring my interventions to meet the specific needs of each client.

You do not have to wait until you are in crisis before you reach out to a counsellor. One thing in life that is certain is change and facing challenges. Just navigating normal life transitions can be stressful and overwhelming. We are made to be in relationship with one another and when you are going through a difficulty there can be such power and healing in being able to express to someone in confidence what you are experiencing on a physical, emotional, mental and social level. We all need that space where we feel safe, we are able to share in confidence and there is no judgment.

Hi Psychology Today community, I am Malissa and I am a Registered Counsellor.

I hold 2 Masters degrees with research focused on 2 different areas: social support, self-esteem and community violence, and current views on parenting. I have various therapeutic interests, so in the first and second sessions, the client and I together decide if there is a good therapeutic fit. I have come to learn that therapy is an act of personal self-care, where you give yourself space, permission and attention to heal the parts of yourself that others may not see, but that you can feel. I encourage and challenge my clients to grow, to not be afraid to ask questions and to be authentic.

Are you feeling anxious, stuck, overwhelmed? Struggling in relationships? Is your mind full of negative self-talk? All of this is completely normal. At some point, we all face challenges.

I have completed my Bachelors in Counselling and Honours in Ministry under mentorship of Prof. Kobus Jonker. My area of expertise are dealing with victims of destructive subcultures, the occult and satanism. It is my heart and passion to see those who have been stuck in unhealthy habits be set free.

Psychotherapy can be both a challenging and a rewarding process. Many people approach the therapeutic process to talk about what’s wrong, but it is also important to talk about what’s right. Each person has natural areas of strength, we aim to capitalise on to develop a more positive outlook, increase coping skills, reduce distress and improve relationships. By implementing a collaborative approach that combines goal-directed and insight-oriented interventions, we will work together to create new paths towards well-being. Our integrative orientation applies cognitive-behavioural, psychodynamic and strength based techniques to incre

My practice focuses on adult individual therapy. I believe that human beings have an inherent need to connect with others. When these connections and ways in which we relate to others are challenged or compromised it can often lead to psychological pain. Psychological and emotional difficulties in turn may translate into mental health issues. Hence, the core of my therapeutic approach is to develop a therapeutic relationship with my clients where corrective experiences or new ways of relating can occur.

I am an Industrial Psychologist and Comensa registered Life Coach who specialises in providing transformational life coaching to clients of all walks of life and life stages who want to discover their life purpose and/or strive to have more balance, health, wellness, joy, meaning and fulfillment in their lives.
