As a Registered Social Worker, accredited by the South African Council for Social Service Professions (SACSSP), I believe that true healing doesn't happen in a vacuum. You are not just struggling with a set of symptoms; you are navigating complex personal, relational, and societal systems that significantly impact your well-being. My approach is holistic and systemic: we won't just focus on what's happening internally, but also on the external factors contributing to your stress, anxiety, or emotional pain.
