About Sulette

NCPS. 21 years' professional experience. Sulette Snyman works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem and confidence, and depression. She offers counselling in English and Afrikaans and accepts international clients in the United Kingdom.

Sulette uses a mix of approaches to guide conversations and practical work. She draws on client-centred counselling to keep the client's perspective central. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that sustain problems. She also uses EMDR for trauma-related issues and employs existential ideas to help people consider meaning and values.

Sessions tend to focus on clear, practical steps alongside reflective discussion. That can include looking at unhelpful thoughts, developing coping strategies for stress and sleep, and practical ways to rebuild confidence. For people affected by grief, relationship strain, fertility or adoption questions, she works through the immediate problems and longer term impacts.

Her background of two decades in practice means she has worked with issues such as parenting strain, career changes, compassion fatigue and mood difficulties. She also lists concerns including ADHD, intimacy-related issues and immigration-related stress among her focus areas.

People who meet her can expect conversations shaped around their needs, with goals agreed together. The counsellor adapts the dialogue and plan as work progresses. To begin, clients use the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule the first session.

Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling

Sulette commonly uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client's perspective to help clarify feelings and choices, which can be useful for issues like confidence and life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical techniques to manage anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often abbreviated to EMDR, for trauma-related symptoms; this approach aims to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories through structured processing. Together these methods mean the counsellor can offer both conversational support and specific skills or interventions when needed.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and agree on which methods to try. That collaborative process means approaches can change as progress is reviewed.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Check the booking flow to see the session options offered and choose what fits into your routine.
