Our Services

We assist Grade 9 learners to make appropriate subject choices (prior to Grade 10) that are in alignment with their dreams, core values and future plans. We assist Grade 12 learners to choose post-matric career paths that are in line with their authentic self, core values, personality and genuine interests. We assist tertiary students with career choices, transitions between faculties, and coping with tertiary/academic stress in general. We assist working adults with decisions and coping mechanisms pertaining to toxic workplace dynamics, job losses, career redesign and pivoting stress.

We offer confidential, brief counselling sessions (typically 3–6 sessions) to employees dealing with personal or work-related issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, or grief. This includes immediate support during crisis situations like traumatic workplace events or personal emergencies. We help employees navigate challenges related to balancing professional and personal responsibilities, managing workplace stress, addressing burnout, and developing coping strategies for demanding work environments or major life transitions. We conduct confidential assessments for employees struggling with alcohol or drug use, provide initial counselling support and make referrals to appropriate treatment programs or specialists when longer-term intervention is needed. We provide guidance to managers and supervisors on how to address employee performance issues, handle difficult situations with staff, recognise signs of distress in team members, and create supportive workplace environments while maintaining appropriate boundaries. We connect employees with specialised services and community resources for issues beyond the scope of brief EAP counselling, such as legal assistance, financial counselling, childcare or eldercare support, and ongoing mental health treatment, through our networks of trusted specialists and service providers. Our EAP services are designed to be easily accessible, confidential, and focused on helping employees resolve issues quickly so they can maintain productivity and well-being at work.

We help executives understand their leadership style, personality traits, strengths, and blind spots through psychological assessments and reflective exercises, enabling more effective self-management and interpersonal interactions. We work with clients to develop skills in recognising and managing their own emotions and understanding others' emotional states, which is crucial for building relationships, navigating conflict, and making sound decisions under pressure. Using evidence-based psychological techniques, we help executives identify and modify counterproductive behaviours, develop new habits, and overcome obstacles that may be limiting their effectiveness or career advancement. We provide strategies for managing the intense pressures of executive roles, preventing burnout, and building psychological resilience to handle setbacks, uncertainty, and high-stakes situations more effectively. We coach executives on how to communicate more effectively with different stakeholders, navigate difficult conversations, build trust with teams, and enhance their influence and presence in organisational settings. These services are typically delivered through one-on-one coaching sessions (and sometimes group sessions) with the psychologist drawing on clinical training to address both professional performance and underlying psychological factors that may affect leadership effectiveness.

We provide therapeutic interventions for clients who have experienced financial trauma such as poverty, bankruptcy, foreclosure, sudden loss of income, or growing up in financially unstable environments. We help our clients to process these experiences, and understand how past financial wounds shape current behaviours, and we nudge them to develop healthier coping mechanisms and financial self-concept. We work with clients who are navigating the psychological challenges of moving between socioeconomic classes, addressing feelings of guilt about upward mobility, imposter syndrome, conflicts between old and new financial values, the hidden rules of different economic classes, and we help clients to integrate their background with their current financial reality without losing their identity. We help clients distinguish between genuine systemic and structural obstacles (discrimination, economic inequality, lack of access to opportunities) and learned helplessness or limiting beliefs, empowering them to act where possible while acknowledging real constraints, and developing advocacy skills and strategic approaches to navigate unjust systems. We work with clients to shift from scarcity-based thinking (fear, hoarding, never-enough mentality) to abundance mindset through cognitive restructuring, addressing underlying anxiety about resources, challenging limiting beliefs, and developing healthier psychological relationships with money that enable both security and generosity. We support clients dealing with the financial and emotional reality of supporting extended family members, helping them to balance cultural obligations with personal financial goals, develop healthy boundaries around money requests, manage guilt and family pressure, and create sustainable support strategies that do not compromise their own financial security. We conduct comprehensive psychological evaluations that examine clients' money personalities, financial attachment styles, risk tolerance, spending triggers, values-money alignment, and unconscious financial scripts, providing detailed insights that inform personalised treatment plans and financial decision-making strategies tailored to their unique psychological makeup. We design and deliver organisational interventions including workshops on financial psychology, employee financial stress assessments, money management skill-building, retirement planning psychology, and creating workplace cultures that reduce financial shame and support employees' overall financial mental health. These services address both the psychological dimensions of money and how financial concerns intersect with workplace performance and overall mental wellbeing.

We work with clients experiencing symptoms of depression, generalised anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, or phobias through therapeutic interventions, medication management referrals when appropriate, and skill-building to improve mood and reduce anxious thoughts. We address problematic patterns including gambling addiction, pornography use, screen/internet addiction, substance abuse, and other compulsive behaviours through assessment, behavioural interventions, relapse prevention strategies, and referrals to specialized treatment programs when needed. We support clients who have experienced traumatic events, abuse, accidents, or other distressing situations, using trauma-informed approaches to process these experiences and reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress. We address challenges in romantic relationships, marriage difficulties, parent-child dynamics, family conflict, communication breakdowns, and interpersonal patterns that create distress or dysfunction in personal connections.

We conduct comprehensive evaluations of claimants to assess the nature and extent of the medical/psychological injury sustained from road accidents, medical negligence, unlawful arrest, divorce-related trauma, or loss of a loved one, including PTSD, depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, and cognitive impairment, and then we produce detailed expert reports that meet legal standards for submission to courts or tribunals. We evaluate and document the severity of psychological harm, loss of life amenities, pain and suffering, and impact on quality of life, while also assessing psychological impact on dependents who have lost financial and emotional support due to a breadwinner's death or incapacitation, providing expert opinions on monetary value of psychological damages and dependency claims. We assess psychological trauma specific to various legal contexts including unlawful arrest and detention (documenting PTSD, humiliation, loss of dignity), medical negligence (evaluating breach of trust, ongoing anxiety about healthcare), and accident-related injuries, providing context-specific expert opinions on the unique psychological consequences of each type of incident. We conduct evaluations in divorce proceedings including parental capacity assessments, best interests of the child evaluations, psychological fitness for custody arrangements, impact of parental conflict on children, assessment of psychological abuse claims, and evaluating functional capacity for co-parenting to inform court decisions on custody, access, and maintenance matters. We provide professional testimony in court proceedings across various case types, explaining psychological findings in accessible language to judges and legal teams, defending assessment methodologies and conclusions under cross-examination, offering objective evidence-based expert opinions, and assisting the court in making informed decisions about compensation, liability, custody arrangements, and other legal matters. These medicolegal services are offered by professionals who are registered with the HPCSA and have knowledge of both psychology and legal frameworks, ensuring that psychological evidence meets the rigorous standards required in medicolegal contexts across various types of litigation.

We help individuals cope with chronic stress, workplace pressures, overwhelming life demands, and burnout through resilience-building strategies, boundary-setting, and identifying sustainable approaches to work and personal life. We support employees who are navigating difficult workplace dynamics such as bullying, harassment, manipulative colleagues, poor leadership, organisational dysfunction, and toxic cultures, while also consulting with organisations to identify and remediate systemic issues that harm employees' wellbeing.
