What a social worker does

Social worker focuses on helping vulnerable individuals, group/families and communities to improve their wellbeing. As a social worker, I work with children and families, and specific groups of women with depression, anxiety.

• I provide individual counselling to those with emotional issues including depression, anxiety, stress.
• I protect vulnerable children, those who are in need of care and protection through taking them to alternative care, I also do foster care and parenting plans.
• I help clients to find alternatives to their problems or challenges,
• I conduct group therapy for girls and women with emotional issues such as depression and anxiety. Growth groups for those women who feel stuck in their middle age.

 As we know that people have unique realities, they have created themselves, different experiences/pain, the social worker value that uniqueness, help clients to deal with their psychological tension in a safe environment where she listens attentively, empathises and be non-judgemental towards them, the clients feel accepted and explore their blocked/unconscious experiences that cause pain, anger, threats within themselves.

Family Therapy

Family therapist differs, it focuses on the family, not groups and community. Nearly all families deal with some sort of dysfunction at one time or another, some regain or retain some sense of wholeness and happiness and some not.

• Family therapist help to improve the troubled relationships between partners, children or other family members.
• It helps in addressing issues such as the conflict between parents and children,
• financial problems,
• marriage problems,
• Impact of substance abuse, mental illness on the entire family.

Relevant theoretical approaches are used in working with families. 

Life Coach

Life coach empowers people to use their full potential towards achieving their dreams. A life coach has a belief that people have a potential to be who they want to be with proper guidance, when stress, frustration, anger, fears and other negative experiences are attended, they will be able to reach their full potential/ achieve their dreams.

In one of my sessions, I took clients to the mountains to be around I nature, do hiking and give them a chance to find themselves, reflect on who they are, reflect on life, think about what they really want, guide them in achieving what they want.

Sometimes people get lost in life, even think that they are not meant to achieve their goals, maybe it because they are channelling their energy in the wrong direction.

“To some it takes time to realise that a broken glass cannot be fixed but another one can be bought instead” Nombuso Tshezi

What l do as a life coach

• I work with client’s conscious experiences, while not forgetting to help them discover and explore their unconscious thoughts, emotions, behaviours, beliefs, values which sometimes limits them in achieving their goals and in making decisions in life.
• As we all know that sometimes the past affects the present, I delve into the person’s past if it significantly affects the person’s present. If the past will assist an individual to work on his/her inhibiting thoughts, feelings, habits, which hold that person back from achieving their desired goals.
• I help clients to live a healthy, normal and adjusted life, through understanding what is normal, healthy and adjusted life.
• I focus on a person’s real-life changes where an individual who has lost meaning of life/loss of direction, to adjust, find purpose and meaning of life, deal with inhibitions and fears and live a normal life again. 

ACTIVITIES INVOLVED

Different approaches/therapies are used to fit each client’s needs, person-centred approach is one of the approaches that are used, solution-focused brief therapy and other more therapies since we are living in a changes environment where people have various need to adjust to life changes.

Workshops

Peaceful heart offer workshops and individual counselling to companies and organisations that do not have an Employee Assistance Program and/Employee Wellness Program.

Workshops can be conducted outside the workplace (in the nearest nature reserve) if it is suitable for the employees and employers of that specific company. We provide these workshops to employees and managers. You might not have considered the health and wellness of your employees but it is very important to have emotional stable employees with dealt anger issues, less stress, anxiety and depression, which will help the company. A healthy environment is also crucial for employees to be productive.

When there is and self-awareness within employees, they are able to relate well to others and that helps in maintaining effective communication between employees, and boost productivity with the company, lessen conflicts, reduce absenteeism and build a strong team.

Soft skills are also important for effective communication within the company, to keep going and for employees to have a healthy working environment.

• Workplace diversity
• Conflict management
• Time management
• Stress management
• Improving self-awareness
• Interpersonal skills
