Therapists in Chris Hani

Growing up and adulting can be challenging. Sometimes we also sustain emotional injuries along the way e.g. through complex relationships or adverse experiences (like being the victim of a crime, car accident, or abuse). If you are interested in a safe space to process and deal with your experiences, I am here to help. It is my job to meet you where you are in your personal journey and to support you in working towards your therapeutic goals. We will work at your pace and on your terms.

Circumstances in life affect individuals on a daily basis, when these issues are left unattended they lead to mental illness which affects the total well-being of a person. You don't have to struggle in silence, share your experience, thoughts, and emotions with me, and working together we can restore hope in your life.

I like to work with individuals that realise that they need and deserve help, and someone who is ready and willing to work on themselves. Someone who wants to improve their coping mechanisms, their ability to manage stress, to manage their emotions, to deal with adjustment, to deal with change, to deal with past and current trauma, to learn to love and nurture themselves and improve their relationships wit others. People who want to shift old patterns that no longer serve them.

As a certified Life Coach, I guide individuals towards growth and the development of their emotional intelligence. I work with adolescents, children, families and individuals.

My psychological practice is focused on using a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Person Centered approach in working with a wide range of psychological difficulties. This is done by providing a safe space with unconditional positive regard towards clients to assist them in their journey to healing, growth and self actualization. As this process occurs through language, I can offer services in English, isiXhosa and Zulu.

I am a registerd counsellor and my focus is on short term primary interventions that seek to alleviate emotional distress. I work from a solution focused approach, taking into consideration the uniqueness of each client as well as their needs.

Working with children, adolescents and youth of all ages as well as their parents, teachers, siblings, peers, and other therapists working with children in relation to learning and development. Mental health in childhood means reaching developmental and emotional milestones and learning healthy social skills and how to cope when there is a problem. Mental health problems can affect concentration, dependability, mental ability and energy levels, hindering performance. There is no health without mental health. Let's talk about mental health, well-being is holistic-good health, positive social relationships & access to basic resources.
