Mrs Tamsyn Alfino

Licensed Clinical Social Workers

I'm an experienced Clinical Social Worker with a therapeutic background in school and hospital settings. I engage with individual adults, adolescents and children (aged 7+) experiencing mild-moderate mental health symptoms; offering a supportive space for growth and healing.

About Me

I offer a supportive space for adults, adolescents, and children (aged 7+). I engage with those experiencing mild-moderate mental health symptoms. Drawing on my background in school and hospital settings, I create an environment to explore feelings. My aim is to foster personal growth and help you gain clarity. This approach is ideal for individuals seeking gentle, effective support on their healing journey.

Approach

Sessions usually begin at a comfortable pace, inviting you to name what feels urgent and what’s quieter, so we can map a path forward together. From Cape Town I work in English and offer both in-person and online appointments, holding space that balances structure with flexibility. I blend gentle brain-body techniques with reflective conversation and small, practical steps between sessions to reduce overwhelm and build resilience. This way of working suits people coping with anxiety, trauma, grief or life transitions who want steady, collaborative support.
