MELINDA JANSE VAN RENSBURG
Online Consultations

I am an Integrative Therapeutic Counsellor/Psychotherapist accredited and registered with ACC (Reg.No. R001164) and BACP (Reg.No. 386105), and a Heart & Mind associate since 2019.  I obtained my diploma at Heart & Mind and started my therapeutic career in central London before moving online after lockdown.  

If you are looking for support in discovering and strengthening your authentic self, and interested in learning new habits that foster better mental health and wellbeing, healthier relationships and greater life satisfaction, welcome to this page.     

You might be experiencing relationship challenges (ancestral or otherwise), find yourself caught in generational patterns with unhelpful coping skills that impact the quality and outcome of your life, or living with the lingering effects of trauma, loss, grief (especially disenfranchised grief) or historical abuse.  Perhaps you are facing mental health challenges like recurring depression, anxiety, chronic stress, issues around self-esteem, or the effects of loneliness and disconnection.   

If any of these resonate with you, and you would value a therapeutic presence as you unpack the above issues, I may be a good fit.  You could consider arranging an initial consultation with me to find out how we might be able to work together, and how understanding your attachment style and unmet childhood needs might help you make sense of your lived experiences.  

My best wishes in your search for the right support, and best of health in the meantime.
