Matshidiso Moloi

My name is Matshidiso Moloi, a Specialist Wellness Counsellor. I completed my BA Honours in Psychology in 2019 then became a volunteer at SADAG. Through volunteering I got exposed to trauma counselling, crisis intervention, relationship and family counselling among others then later trained to assist university students. I am a strong believer of mental health wellness regardless of gender, race, religion, age and sexuality and it warms my heart when more people reach out to take care of themselves mentally. I hope to continue breaking the stigma that exists about seeking help as the Covid-19 lockdown unveiled the mental health challenges that people were going through. Although the circumstances were not ideal but it created an awareness that could not be ignored. “Mental health is not a destination but a process. It’s about how you drive, not where you are going.” – Noam Shpancer
