My Approach to Counselling
- Understanding your situation: Saying out loud what’s going on for you, being guided by intentional questions, and talking to someone who is neutral and objective towards your situation often provides instant relief and opens up a range of new possibilities for you to consider.
- Finding practical solutions: Whether through conversation or through the use of specific counselling tools and exercises, we will focus on finding practical ways for you to improve your day-to-day wellbeing, and to move closer towards the life that you want to live.
- Reconnecting with your strengths: Even if, right now, it might not feel that way, you have come so far already! An important part of our sessions will be to rediscover your own individual strengths and resources, and to reconnect and develop a sense of agency and trust in yourself.

Svenja
From the moment I reached out to Svenja, her immediate, professional, and compassionate response truly set her apart from others we considered. She stood head and shoulders above the rest, responding swiftly and making us feel understood and supported right from the outset. For any parent concerned about their child’s mental well-being, we cannot recommend Svenja highly enough. She has made a lasting, positive impact, and for that, we are truly thankful.
Terence
I would like to express my gratitude to you once again. You’re doing an excellent job. You encouraged me to consider all my options from new perspectives multiple times, sometimes emphasizing more rational thinking, sometimes highlighting gut feelings. I arrived at the same conclusion I had before our session, but this time with one significant difference: I felt completely empowered to make the right decision.

Counsellors are bound to a specific scope of practice which is comprehensive but excludes psychotherapy, social work, medical health work and occupational therapy. Counsellors are obliged to terminate counselling and refer clients to a professional (doctor, psychologist, social worker or psychiatrist) where their counselling, with reference to possible pathology or dysfunction, falls outside the scope of their practice.
