Mr Deon Karl Myburgh
Specialist Wellness Counselor
“A professional with over 20 years experience specialising in emergency trauma counselling / trauma intervention / trauma support.”
About Me
When trauma strikes, it can feel overwhelming and disorienting. As a Specialist Wellness Counsellor, I offer dedicated support for those navigating emergency trauma, drawing on over 20 years’ experience. My MA in Psychology informs a calm, practical approach, guiding you towards stability. We focus on understanding your reactions and building concrete strategies to cope. This steady guidance helps clients find their footing again after distressing events.
Approach
When an acute crisis lands, my focus is on steadying the moment and creating a clear, manageable plan so you feel less overwhelmed. In Pretoria I offer in-person sessions in English and Afrikaans and regular online appointments, keeping pace with what you can handle between meetings. Sessions are practical and collaborative: we map reactions, practice short stabilising techniques, and set small, measurable steps toward safety and routine. This way of working tends to suit people seeking calm, concrete support after distressing events.
