General Wellness

Wellness issues are not always indicative of a psychological dysfunction; rather, they can stem from errors in thinking or cognitive patterns.

My Happy Customers!

JC van der Merwe is nie net ons professionele en persoonlike ontwikkellings fasiliteerder hier by Automation Works Training Facility nie, hy werk ook met die hoërskool leerlinge by die Techno Buzz Winterskool wat ons saam met die WKOD aanbied. Soveel studente gaan ‘n ander mens huis toe na ‘n paar sessies saam JC. JC het ‘n slag met jong mense, hy het ‘n merkwaardige manier van luister, in neem en met die studente kommunikeer. Al het hy baie geduld is hy ook streng maar die studente respekteer hom en hy leer ons studente hoe om rekenskap te vat vir hulle woorde en aksies, asook om respek te hê vir hulself en ander.  Hy is ‘n absolute aanwins vir Automation Works Training Facility en hy speel ‘n groot rol in die ontwikkelling van al ons studente.

Elmarie

I brought a teenage boy to JC who had gone through a devastating loss in his life when his mom passed away from cancer. He moved to a new province and a new school and was uncertain, anxious and grieving. In the year and some months working with JC, the family has seen a tremendous change.

A quiet and reserved teenager has turned into a confident, responsible and largely happy child. He’s a bit more sure of himself/assertive and shows a little bit more discipline and self-designed structure. He attributes that to JC helping him feel less alone in the world and giving him tools to navigate life and stay true to himself. It helps very much that JC is also a kind and easy person to talk to.

JC’s depth of understanding, guidance & sound counseling has equipped me with the necessary coping tools & skills to work towards overcoming the difficult emotional, cognitive & visual challenges experienced after suffering a stroke. JC is easy to engage with, has integrity & is a wonderful listener.

Carl

When my husband passed, I was devastated. Not sure where to turn or what to do with myself.   JC helped me through all of it, to make sense out of all the conflicting emotions and brought me out the other side, a much more balanced person, able to deal with life in a much better way.

Students

I am currently offering a special initiative aimed at supporting students who may be facing challenges with their mental health and well-being. As a counselor, I understand the importance of early intervention and support, especially during the formative years of a student’s life.

For this reason, I am pleased to offer a significantly reduced rate for counseling services. This initiative aims to make counseling more accessible and affordable for students who may benefit from professional support. By collaborating with schools in the area, we can work together to ensure that students receive the help they need to thrive academically, emotionally, and socially.

If you feel you could benefit from counseling support, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I am committed to providing compassionate and effective counseling services to help students overcome challenges, build resilience, and achieve their full potential.
