Ms Karla Cloete

Are you feeling overwhelmed, unmotivated, or stuck in survival mode? Maybe your child is acting out, or perhaps you're quietly navigating grief, anxiety, or a deep sense that something just isn’t right. You’ve tried to push through, but you’re tired of people-pleasing, procrastinating, or second-guessing yourself. My clients often come from complicated family dynamics, have felt misunderstood or too sensitive growing up, or have had to be “the strong one” for too long. Whether you're a student burnt out from pressure, a creative struggling with self-doubt, or a parent trying to support a child who doesn’t seem to fit the mould.

You're ready to feel understood, and to learn tools that actually help. I believe change happens when we feel seen and safe. In our sessions, I combine art- and play-based techniques, psychoeducation, and strengths-based strategies to build emotional skills, increase insight, and support sustainable growth.

Choosing a counsellor is a big step- and it matters that you feel a connection. If anything here resonated with you, please feel free to reach out. I'd be happy to answer any questions or set up a free brief phone consultation to see if we're a good fit. You don't have to do this alone!
