Miss Eirini Koukouzellis (RealTalkWithRini)

Registered Counselor

verified by TherapyRoute

“An integrative, compassionate and professional counsellor, predominately working with adults who relate to anxiety, depression, substance abuse, grief, eating disorders and trauma (to name a few, but not limited to). Eirini's goal is to create a realm that exhibits the meaning of her name, "Peace".”

About Me

Eirini is an integrative, compassionate counsellor supporting adults through complex emotional experiences. She guides clients to explore challenges like anxiety, grief, or trauma openly in a professional space. Eirini’s goal is to cultivate a peaceful realm within sessions, helping individuals find inner calm. This gentle, steady approach offers a supportive path for those seeking stability and well-being amidst life's complexities.

Approach

Creating a space steeped in calm shapes how I work: sessions move at a steady, unhurried pace where we notice patterns, name emotions and try small, practical shifts together. I offer face-to-face meetings in Cape Town and secure online sessions in English, balancing reflective listening with structured tools informed by your goals—sometimes we use brief between-session practices to gather new data. People navigating anxiety, mood shifts, addiction recovery or loss often find this measured, collaborative rhythm helpful.
