Mr Mike Webber

Counseling Psychologist

“An experienced therapist that works with International Best Practice and evidence-based therapeutic approaches to therapy.”

About Me

As an experienced Counseling Psychologist, I offer a grounded and collaborative space. My approach draws on international best practice and evidence-based methods. This means we explore your challenges using proven strategies, tailored for you. Clients who value a structured, effective approach to finding clarity and practical tools often find our sessions supportive and reliable. I aim to help you build lasting well-being.

Approach

Therapy here follows clear, evidence-informed steps that balance structure with your lived experience, so we make steady, practical progress together. In Cape Town I offer sessions in English and Afrikaans and provide secure online options when distance or schedules make that easier. Sessions often begin with careful assessment, then move into focused skill-building, short experiments between meetings and gentle pacing for complex issues like chronic illness, PTSD or burnout. People seeking pragmatic clarity and durable coping tend to find this way of working useful.
