MSC Social Work & Wellness
Helping you create the life you want!
A little about me and this practice:
Mia S. Coetzee Social Worker and Counsellor
I have been a Social Worker and counsellor for 19 years, practicing in government departments, NPOs and private practice. I am registered with the South African Counsel for Social Service Professions (SACSSP) and with the Social Work Registration Board of New Zealand (SWRB NZ).
With this website I want to make counselling more accessible. By creating a safe space, free of judgement, my clients will have the opportunity to explore and delve into all aspects of their lives and develop the necessary skills to live the life of their choosing.
​
Polycrisis in our personal lives places us at higher risk to develop, or exacerbate mental health challenges such as anxiety, stress, and depression. To help my clients face and overcome these challenges, I provide targeted interventions based on individualised intervention plans. All intervention plans are based on individual assessments and aims to empower clients with multifaceted skills.
​
As a trained Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) counselor, I have extensive experience in family counselling, couple's counselling, addiction counselling (youth and adults), and therapeutic group facilitation.

Holistic Assessment
The aim of the holistic assessment is to map the different aspects of your life, focusing on challenges and strengths. This is a necessary step for the development of an IDP (Individual Development Plan) which will be your treatment plan, consisting of counselling and skills development.
Family Counselling
This service aims at improving and strengthening the family. In addition to open discussions, sessions will focus on:
identifying the role and responsibilities of each family member
improving communication
strengthening the individual
developing and improving parenting skills
guiding the family through the life stages of each member
Couple's Counselling
This service is based (but not exclusively) on the Gottman Method Theory (G.M.T.) which aims to increase friendship and closeness in couples. A strong foundation is important for the health and longevity of all intimate relationships. By following the principles of G.M.T., clients will develop the skills they need to reach their relationship goals.
