FAQs

1. What types of counselling do you offer?

I offer individual counselling for adults and adolescents, couples counselling, and life transition support.

Sessions are available both in-person and online via Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

 

2. Where are in-person sessions held?

In-person counselling is available by appointment at professional office spaces in Rivonia, Bryanston, or Sandton, depending on your location and availability.

Yes, I am registered with the HPCSA (PRC 0044792) and have a BHF practice number (1246968).
I accept most medical aids, but it’s always best to confirm with your provider whether counselling with a Registered Counsellor is covered under your specific plan.

The first session is an opportunity to get to know each other, understand your goals for counselling, and go through your intake form. We’ll also discuss confidentiality and how we’ll work together.

 

8. Is my information kept confidential?

Absolutely. As a Registered Counsellor, I comply with the HPCSA Code of Ethics and POPIA regulations. Everything discussed in session is confidential unless there’s a risk of harm to you or someone else.

 

9. What is your cancellation policy?

Cancellations require at least 24 hours’ notice to avoid being charged the full session fee.

 

10. What platform do you use for online sessions?

I use Zoom or Microsoft Teams, based on your preference. You’ll receive a secure link before your session.
