About Sulette
Sulette Snyman offers warm, person-focused counselling that starts with the person's own goals. She draws on over two decades of practice to help people manage stress, anxiety and depression. Her approach is straightforward and respectful.
She meets people where they are and listens first. In sessions she focuses on practical ways to build confidence and motivation. She uses client-centred listening alongside approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques and EMDR for trauma.
How Sulette works
Conversations and exercises are adapted to what each person needs that week. She also supports people facing relationship strain, intimacy issues and grief. Parenting concerns, sleep or eating difficulties and work-related stress are common topics she helps address.
Sulette also works with issues tied to identity, including LGBT concerns and immigration-related stress. Her practice pays attention to attachment, abandonment and adoption or foster-care histories when these affect current day coping. She helps people explore feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame or impulsivity and find ways to manage them.
Career and life-purpose questions are worked on step by step. Sulette is registered with NCPS. She offers sessions in English and Afrikaans and accepts international clients.
Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and booking a session. She aims to make the first steps clear and manageable for someone feeling overwhelmed.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online counselling
Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the centre of each session. The counsellor listens without judgement and mirrors what matters to the person, helping them clarify goals and priorities. This approach supports issues like low self-esteem, life transitions and relationship concerns.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. It uses practical exercises and simple homework to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful habits. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that uses structured attention and memory work to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and related distress.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss options and work collaboratively to choose techniques that fit the person's goals and comfort level. Sessions can shift over time as needs change, combining listening, practical tools and trauma work when required.
Online therapy offers flexibility to fit into busy lives. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing, want brief updates, or need support between longer sessions.
Many registered or accredited professionals use these formats to make counselling more accessible while keeping the clinical work focused on the person's priorities.
