Shayen Capaima

Hallo, my name is Shayen. I am driven and passionate about the field of counselling and psychology. In this regard, I am honored and proud  to provide individual, couples/marriage, family and online counselling in my private practice. Furthermore, I completed my Bachelor's of Psychology at the University of Stellenbosch. After this I worked for the Human Sciences Research Council as a data collector. This was part of a national health study. I recently completed the theoretical aspect of the Humanitas Counseling course. I completed my practical component of counselling last year November 2023.

During my counselling sessions it is my duty to put the needs of my clients at the forefront and to make decisions alongside them that will be in their best interest. To give you as a client the freedom to feel and talk about whatever it is that is on your heart and mind is a crucial aspect of the counselling process. All information disclosed remains confidential.

I promise  to hold a safe space for each of my clients during sessions and to build a client-counsellor relationship filled with trust, empathy and unconditional positive regard. This means that we will venture on a journey of healing and growth in a non-judgmental atmosphere.
In this regard, each individual have the capacity to heal and grow through the process of counselling.

Furthermore, as counsellor I understand that seeking help can be a bit daunting and overwhelming, that's why as counsellor I will be sure to create a comfortable and warm atmosphere during our counselling sessions.
