Greetings! I am Apiwe Bongo, a Registered Social Worker & Online Therapist. I speak IsiXhosa and English, I also have a very good understanding of IsiZulu. Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or longing for meaningful change? I’m here to help you navigate life’s challenges with warmth, understanding, and practical tools. As a young social worker passionate about helping others, I offer online counseling sessions Monday to Thursday, between 4 PM and 6 PM and Friday to Saturday between 2:30 and 4:30 PM. You can connect with me from the comfort of your own space via secure video, making it easy to fit support into your busy day.
I use WhatsApp Video, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp Video/ Calls and Normal Calls for online sessions. Whether you’re a young adult figuring out your next steps, a parent seeking guidance, or someone working through personal struggles, I create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your feelings and build healthier patterns.
My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and focused on helping you break through mental and emotional barriers so you can live with more clarity, confidence, and joy. Let’s work together to move you forward. Reach out today — I’d love to walk alongside you on your journey.
