Welcome! I'm Bernice Jaffe, a dedicated, empathic and non-judgmental counsellor with a unique blend of experience in animal behaviour and human psychology. With 25 years as an animal behaviourist and a Diploma in Counselling and Communication from SACAP, I've developed a distinctive approach that combines empathy, understanding, and evidence-based techniques combined with cognitive behavioural therapy.
I work with individuals, couples, and families to address a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relationship issues. My experience with adolescents and adults of all ages enables me to tailor my approach to each client's unique needs.
What sets me apart is my ability to create a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. My background in animal behaviour has given me a unique perspective on emotional regulation, self-care, and compassion.
In addition to my work with humans, I'm also a bereavement counsellor and pet death doula.
