Mr Dave Mills

Counselor

“I am an experienced Counsellor, academic tutor and mentor. I work with couples and individuals in personal development support.”

About Me

I offer a supportive space for individuals and couples seeking personal growth. As an experienced counsellor and mentor, I guide you in clarifying goals and exploring new perspectives. We can work together to understand challenges and build practical strategies for a more fulfilling life. My calm, guiding approach helps foster self-awareness. It's ideal for those ready to embrace positive change.

Approach

Working with couples and individuals, I focus on steady, practical steps that help you clarify feelings, set manageable goals and notice small shifts over time. Sessions in Cape Town are gentle and focused, offered in English or Afrikaans and available online to fit your life; between meetings I suggest simple practices to carry the work forward. I keep a calm pace, blending reflective listening with practical problem-solving around grief, anxiety, low mood or relationship strain. This way of working suits people ready to try small, steady change.
