In Person Therapists in North West

Each individual and their way of thinking deserve to be understood in their particular context, in terms of lifestyle, culture, and beliefs. Being able to connect with a client and go through the process of how they can better cope with their pressures, recontextualizing their situation into one of upliftment.

I am an educational psychologist with a deep conviction that each person has the inherent potential to be the best they can be! I am looking forward to share your lived experiences, and to play a small part in each and every client’s growth path by addressing challenges, and barriers, by literary deconstructing these obstacles, and assisting client through co-constructing their future life narratives, solutions and outcomes! "The one thing that you have that nobody else have is you! Your voice, your mind, your story, your vision! So write and draw and build and play and dance and live only as you can!”

Mimi completed a four-year degree in psychology and 9 month internship counselling at Headway (An association for Traumatic Brain Injury); Witkoppen Health and Welfare Clinic and volunteered on The Phelophepha Train of Hope, under the supervision of psychologists. These experiences opened Mimi up to extensively appreciate the extreme diversity and need to offer polarised and inclusive counselling services to the dynamic cultures and context of South Africa. Mimi is highly trained in psychology to provide an array of psychological & mental health services. She’s adopted the Person-Centered and Solution-Focused Approach.

My areas of specialty include marriage/couple's counselling, counselling children using play therapeutic techniques, psychometric assessments to assist with career counselling and subject choice, suicidality, mood and behavioural changes, sexual identity concerns, transitions, family counselling, trauma, bereavement/grief/loss and anger management.

I aim to enable men and women to thrive by becoming the best version of themselves. The process addresses trauma, anger, stress and anxiety within themselves and their relationships through emotional awareness and practical interventions. During the sessions, I strive to enable my clients to experience physical and emotional relief from stress, anxiety and embodied trauma.

Strategic business and career coaching & purposeful life coaching is my passion. Ambitious and career orientated professionals will benefit from the coaching process as it allows you to challenge your critical reasoning, leadership and strategic thinking skills.

Sometimes the demands of life can become overwhelming, and we could do with kind heart to journey alongside us as we explore a life of more meaning, purpose and joy. Whilst life is challenging, and hurtful things happen, often not of our choosing, resulting in trauma, grief and distress, I believe that through this we can grow and heal. At times, we need someone to really listen to our story and other times; we need to be guided to acquire skills to help us navigate distress, difficult relationships and overwhelming emotions.
