I am Zamuxolo Ngubane, a Counselling Psychologist registered with HPCSA. For me being a Counselling Psychologist is not just a career but a calling, a calling to assist the people I work with without limiting them to their ailments but also recognizing their strengths and resources. I am passionate about the therapeutic work I do as I believe this improves the quality of life for my clients.

I obtained my masters degree from the University of Johannesburg and completed my training at Helen Joseph Hospital and Rahima Moosa Mother and Child Hospital. The training allowed me to work with individuals of various ages and from different backgrounds. This exposure allowed me to tailor interventions to the clients I worked with while ensuring they were evidence-based.

I have been trained in numerous therapeutic modalities such as psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy and narrative therapy. However, when working with clients I conduct a thorough examination of the client which includes an intake and formulation of the presenting problem. This enquiry helps in determining the modality I use to work with the client. While I follow a specify manner of enquiry when working with clients, I also aim to be empathetic, understanding and non-judgmental ensuring that I am creating a safe space for my clients so they can feel heard and comfortable within the therapeutic space.
