Tasleem

Mrs Tasleem Daffurn, MSW

Clinical Social Worker

“Private, confidential and affordable counselling services to adults who are having difficulty finding their balance.”

About me

When life feels overwhelming and you're struggling, I offer a confidential space to explore what’s keeping you off balance. My Counseling services help adults navigate challenges, providing practical support to regain stability. We work together to identify effective strategies, helping you move towards a more grounded daily life. This approach is ideal for those seeking a supportive path to personal equilibrium.

Approach

When everyday life feels off-kilter, I guide gentle, practical steps that are easy to try and adapt so change feels manageable. Sessions are held in English via secure online connections from Valhalla, Gauteng, with a calm, focused pace that balances listening with action. We notice patterns in anxiety, stress and relationship interactions, set small goals, and use short between-session experiments to build confidence. This approach tends to suit adults and couples wanting steady, practical support to restore everyday balance.
