Trauma Therapy
When something overwhelming happens, your body does what it needs to do to get you through it, and then doesn't always switch off afterwards. We work with that directly, at whatever pace you can manage.

Counselling in South Africa
Sessions are held by secure video, so you can be anywhere in South Africa. What matters is that you tell us you're here, because it decides who is able to work with you.
Local licence required. A local licence is required here and it is enforced. We will only match you with someone who holds one, even if that means saying no.
Who is allowed to work with you
South Africa regulates this tightly. Psychologists and Registered Counsellors are registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa, the titles are protected, and the Council enforces them. We will only match you with someone holding current HPCSA registration.
Whoever we match you with, you'll be told which registration they hold and their number, so you can check it against the register yourself before booking. The wider picture for Africa is on the Africa page.
Time zones
South Africa runs on SAST. We confirm your local time in writing before your first session.
If you need help now
Call your local emergency number. In South Africa the SADAG helpline is 0800 567 567. Elsewhere, Befrienders Worldwide lists helplines by country at befrienders.org.
We are not a crisis service and cannot respond urgently or out of hours. More options are on our crisis page.
What we work with
The same work, wherever you are
EMDR Therapy
EMDR helps your mind finish processing something it couldn't process at the time. It's one of the most researched trauma treatments there is, and it usually asks far less of you than telling the story over and over.

You've probably tried the apps and the planners already. We'll build the practical side with you, and we'll also work on what tends to go unaddressed: the years of assuming you should find all this easier.
