Ms Teresa van Rooyen
Social Worker (Mental Health)
“Assisting adolescents and adults with transition challenges; Psychological Evaluations - Industry and Educational; Trauma and Bereavement counselling.”
About Me
I support adolescents and adults navigating significant life transitions, helping them find stability amidst change. My work also includes processing trauma and bereavement, offering a compassionate space to heal. Additionally, I provide thorough psychological evaluations for educational or industry needs. Clients benefit from my grounded approach, gaining clarity and practical support to move forward with confidence.
Approach
Supporting people through major turning points, I work in short, focused cycles that balance listening with practical steps to rebuild stability. Sessions in Paarl or online, in Afrikaans or English, move at a gentle but purposeful pace: we assess patterns, use testing where clarity is needed, explore loss or shock safely, and agree on small experiments to try between meetings. You’ll find this way helpful if you want compassionate containment alongside concrete tools to regain direction and day-to-day functioning.
