About Sulette

Sulette Snyman is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people find more balance and meaning. She draws on 21 years of professional experience to listen, reflect, and tailor conversations to each person. Her manner is respectful and compassionate, aimed at helping people take the next steps when life feels difficult.

She works with common concerns such as stress, anxiety and depression, and with issues linked to trauma and abuse. Sulette also addresses self-esteem, motivation and confidence, and supports people dealing with grief, relationship strain and intimacy-related worries. Adoption and foster care is listed among her additional focus areas.

Her practice mixes practical techniques and open conversation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps spot unhelpful thoughts and change small patterns. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for people processing traumatic memories. Motivational Interviewing supports people finding their own reasons to change.

Sessions are adapted to each person’s goals and pace. She aims to create a collaborative plan and to use tools that fit everyday life. Sulette can work in English and Afrikaans and accepts international clients.

Taking the first step can feel hard. She encourages clear, steady progress and helps clients build skills for coping with life’s transitions. To begin, follow the site’s Start Therapy steps and complete the short matching questionnaire.

How Sulette’s approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions and focuses on being listened to without judgement; it helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and provides practical exercises to change patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) supports people who are processing traumatic memories by using structured protocols to reduce the intensity of distressing recollections.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods suit the person’s goals and pace. This collaborative planning means techniques may change as progress is made and new needs emerge.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or letting someone choose an audio-only option if that feels easier. Registered or accredited professionals adapt their tools so therapy can still include practical exercises, trauma processing and motivational work remotely.
