Mr Jacques Wagner

Registered Counselor

As an HPCSA Registered Counsellor, I am dedicated to providing client-centered counselling that fosters growth and resilience. With a compassionate approach, I offer evidence-based interventions to empower individuals on their unique therapeutic journey. Let's navigate life's challenges together. Practice number 102123

About Me

I am a Registered Counselor in Stellenbosch Central, Western Cape, South Africa, and an Accredited Court Annexed Mediator (High Courts Pretoria and Middelburg), Family Mediator, and Master Negotiator. I help adults and children with career problems and trauma. I provide psychometric testing, prevention work, personal development, and child psychological and diagnostic assessments in a confidential, practical setting.

Approach

Clients in Stellenbosch or online often notice sessions are practical and steady—rooted in clear goals and gentle challenge. I use focused dialogue, brief assessments and reflective tasks between meetings to clarify career direction or to untangle trauma-driven patterns. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s readiness, pairing short practical steps with space for emotion. People navigating career shifts, parenting pressures or recovery from difficult events typically find this grounded, respectful way of working helpful.
