https://headroom.co.za/user/sue-randall/ My underlying approach is trauma-informed. We must respect and work within the needs and limits of our bodies, and mindfulness is a great way to connect with our body but also step back from trauma reactions. I respond to each client on their own terms. If your challenge is a relationship, I can help you slow down and unpack areas of miscommunication and anxiety to gain insight into negative patterns. If you have a poor body image, I can help you focus on what your body does well - rather than how it looks. Most of us have been affected by past trauma, and understanding how those difficult experiences caused a mental or emotional scar is very helpful for learning to move more gracefully through our trouble points. Overall, I help people build a life and identity that feels more authentic and expansive.
“ A client asked me if it gets depressing to deal with "people who have problems". I told her I love my work, as I witness people growing and becoming a better version of themselves.
“ Some say love is holding on and some say letting go - John Denver ("Perhaps Love")
“ The decision to enter into counselling has to be made with the heart, not just the head.
“ Buddhism teaches that we can only love others if we also love ourselves.
“ Do you feel seen, heard, and connected?
I am a natural listener. Most people find it easy to talk to me and instinctively know they can trust me. I'm a background support person when you need more than your social circle or family can provide.

I am a natural listener. Most people find it easy to talk to me and instinctively know they can trust me. I'm a background support person when you need more than your social circle or family can provide. Indeed, sometimes my clients are facing challenges that directly involve their social circle, colleagues, or family. In such situations, it's very helpful to have a neutral person who offers a stable emotional connection - while also giving insights and teaching new coping skills. Most of my clients have repeat sessions, which gives us the chance to identify patterns or habits that are limiting wellness and happiness. I also offer single sessions. I encourage all prospective clients of therapy or counselling to shop around if necessary to find a practitioner who feels right for you. Your counsellor should be a caring listener who can act as a mirror to help you see yourself through new eyes. Sometimes, a small change in our behaviour or thinking can have a lasting positive effect that makes us feel better about ourselves and ripples out to the other people in our lives. I'm also a registered TRE provider, and I understand the effects of trauma on both the body and the mind. All of us have experienced trauma to some extent, and it can affect our daily choices in ways that are focused on protection and survival rather than growth and fulfilment. Other areas of interest are bereavement, quitting addictions, and living with chronic illness or pain. Finally, because I struggled with my mental and physical health as a young adult, I have a keen interest in counseling adolescents who are dealing with the often difficult transition to adulthood. ‹‹‹
