"Holding your hand to a better healing" My name is Carmina Nake a listed Specialist Wellness Counsellor and founder of Carmel Holding Hands Counselling Services. As a society we live in a very toxic environment that unfortunately contribute a negative impact in most of the people. It can be overwhelming to other individuals as they do not know how to approach or handle the challenging situation they are facing at that moment. Clients come to therapy to be heard and to be listened to.Every client that comes to therapy is different and has got his or her own unique challenges. I offer non-judgemental , confidential online counselling sessions to all my clients, creating and assuring a safe space always. During initial sessions I strive to go to an emotional well with the clients to listen to them when they talk about issues that might have a negative impact in their lives. As a specialist Wellness Counsellor I offer counselling within my scope of practice and had training in training in the following counselling approaches : CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), GBV (Gender Based Violence) & IPV (Intimate Partner Violence), Couples Counselling, Suicide & suicidal thoughts, DBT (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy), Anxiety, Trauma and Bereavement. I offer counselling in 7 languages i.e. English, Tswana, Zulu, Xhosa, Southern Sotho, Northern Sotho and Tsonga as I am a firm believer that counselling session should be conducted in a language that the clients will understand and are able to express their emotions. My CPD points are up-to date as I am eager to develop myself. I also work and have years of experience at one of the reputable universities in South Africa in meet hundreds of students on a daily basis from all walks of life, I have done some volunteering work at Meraki Counselling Matters. The biggest "myth" is that when people attend counselling is a sign of weakness whereas the "truth" is that attending therapy is a step forward to healing and wellness. If you want counselling at the comfort of your home reach out to me so that we can connect "Holding your hand to a better healing". ‹‹‹
