Sulette Snyman , NCPS

Sulette Snyman is a UK-licensed therapist with 21 years of professional experience, offering compassionate, experienced support for people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and challenges with self-esteem and motivation. Holding the NCPS credential, which indicates advanced professional training in psychotherapy, she combines clinical expertise with a respectful, sensitive approach to help clients navigate difficult life moments.

Sulette works with a wide range of concerns including relationship and family issues, grief and loss, intimacy-related struggles, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting and career pressures, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses more specific areas such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, fertility and immigration issues, and feelings of emptiness, guilt, or shame. Her practice integrates evidence-informed methods tailored to each person’s needs and goals.

Treatment is shaped collaboratively, with conversations and plans individualized to fit each client’s circumstances and preferences. Sulette emphasizes that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life requires courage, and she positions herself as a supportive, steady partner in that process. She is currently accepting clients and works with people from different countries in English and Afrikaans.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Sulette draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and EMDR to support people in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's perspective and helps them explore their feelings and values - it is useful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and finding direction. CBT is a practical, structured method that helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often effective for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. EMDR is a targeted therapy that helps process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity through guided eye movement or other bilateral stimulation, and it can be helpful for trauma and abuse recovery.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sulette works with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and adapts techniques over time so the therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single method.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to connect across time zones, and to maintain continuity of care during life transitions. Licensed professionals can deliver the same therapeutic principles online, and Sulette tailors the format to what works best for each client.
