Tania Barron

 

I am a Specialist Wellness Counsellor registered with the ASCHP.

 

I have completed a BA Psychological Counselling degree and BA Honours Psychology degree, both through Unisa. I have completed my counselling training with Humanitas. I am also currently enrolled for a Honours degree in Gender studies with Unisa

 

I am passionate about working with teenagers and parents, assisting in dealing with this difficult stage of life. Guiding teenagers in finding themselves and developing  their identity. Aiding them in understanding their feelings and the challenges they face. Assisting teenagers in finding the skills to navigate life that is a rollercoaster of ups and downs. Life for teenagers is filled with peer pressure, overloaded schedules, the pressure to choose a career and of course ..... puberty.

 

I also aim to assist parents in understanding their teenagers better by helping parents build communication channels and new bonds with their teenagers and showing them empathy. I feel it is important to guide our teenagers to become a well balanced adult. This time in their life can be confusing and overwhelming.

 

I assist individuals to work through daily life challenges to enable them to live better lives and reach their full potential.

 

I love spending time with my loving and supportive husband and family and feel our family is a very important part of our support structure. I have two beautiful rescue spaniels whom I love cuddling on the couch with. 

 

I look forward to meeting you and walking your journey with you.
