Kaela Sussman (Registered Counsellor)
Counselling for Staff in Johannesburg & Online
Professional counselling for staff supports employees with ongoing wellbeing, everyday stress, workplace pressure, trauma, grief, and organisational challenges.
Overview
Professional Counselling Support for Staff
Counselling for staff provides employees with a structured and confidential space to receive professional support. Employees may use counselling to navigate work demands, personal pressures, and everyday stress.
Importantly, counselling is not limited to crisis situations or performance concerns. It is offered as an ongoing wellbeing resource that staff can access proactively, including for challenges that may not be visible in the workplace.
As a result, support becomes normalised. Employees feel supported as people, and organisations create a healthier and more sustainable working environment.
Benefits
How Corporate Counselling Can Help
Counselling for staff offers structured support that helps organisations care for employee wellbeing. It also supports employees during periods of pressure, uncertainty, or change.
By offering access to counselling, organisations promote emotional wellbeing while supporting staff in a professional and ethical way.
Supporting Staff as People
Counselling supports employees as whole people. Staff may use counselling to talk through personal challenges, work–life balance, emotional pressure, or periods of transition.
Demonstrating Care and Responsibility
Counselling helps create a workplace culture that values wellbeing and recognises the human side of work.
Preventative Wellbeing Support
Regular access to counselling allows staff to manage stress before it escalates. This proactive approach helps reduce burnout, emotional overload, and longer-term absence from work.
Responding to Difficult Events
While counselling is offered as ongoing support, it remains available during times of loss, trauma, conflict, or organisational change.
