Mr Mark Emmerich, BSW

Registered Social Worker

An experienced, competent and empathetic recovery counsellor & registered social worker, helping individuals with addictive disorders on their journey to recovery.

About Me

This experienced recovery counsellor offers a compassionate space for individuals navigating addictive disorders. They competently guide clients through each step of their path to recovery, helping them understand their unique journey. Sessions offer practical support and empathetic listening, ensuring individuals feel truly seen. Clients can then build lasting stability and move forward with confidence in their recovery.

Approach

I work with you to create clear, manageable steps that respect your pace and priorities, combining careful assessment with practical, day-to-day tools. In sessions—in Cape Town or online, in English—we use focused conversation, problem-solving and gentle accountability to explore patterns around substance use, sex and relationships, and the shame that often hides beneath them. Between meetings I encourage simple experiments and reflections to test new ways of coping. This approach suits adults and couples seeking steady, skill-based progress.
