About Sulette

Sulette Snyman is a counsellor registered with NCPS in the United Kingdom and has 21 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and motivational difficulties. She also supports clients with relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy issues and challenges linked to career and life changes.

Sulette draws on several established approaches to help people untangle difficult problems. She uses Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the person’s own perspective and pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviours. She also uses EMDR when trauma memories are a core concern.

In sessions she listens for what matters most to the client and then shapes the conversation around that. Practical steps, thought exercises and real-life experiments are common tools she offers. The focus can be short-term problem solving or deeper work about identity, abandonment or attachment issues depending on what the client wants.

Sulette has worked with a wide range of issues over two decades, including eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, compassion fatigue, fertility and immigration-related stress. She also supports people dealing with isolation, emptiness or life purpose questions. Language options include English and Afrikaans.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The therapist uses a subscription model for fees that can be cancelled at any time; costs vary by location.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client’s own views and timing. In practice this means the counsellor listens, reflects and follows what the client brings up, helping them clarify priorities and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) addresses distressing memories through a structured process designed to reduce their emotional charge.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and the nature of the problem and recommend a way forward. That choice can change as the work progresses and will be agreed with the client at each stage.

The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm the exact online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work and travel, and they allow for shorter check-ins or camera-free phone sessions when needed. These practical benefits help people keep therapy in their weekly routine while working with the agreed therapeutic approach.
