About Sulette
Sulette Snyman uses a human-centred approach that puts the client's experience first. She combines practical problem-solving with empathic listening to help people cope with stress, anxiety and depression. Sulette has 21 years of professional experience and speaks English and Afrikaans.
She focuses on trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem and confidence. She also works with concerns such as grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and ADHD. She adapts the conversation and plan to each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.

Her background includes work across many areas that affect daily life, from career stress and parenting pressures to immigration issues and feelings of emptiness. She helps people who are struggling with relationship challenges to talk through emotions and make practical changes. People who choose Sulette can expect a respectful, sensitive and compassionate style.
She will work alongside each person to build a plan that fits their goals. To begin, prospective clients follow the site process to match and schedule according to availability.

How Sulette works online
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, moods and behaviours interact. It uses short, practical exercises and homework to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often chosen for anxiety, low mood and stress because it gives clear tools to use between sessions.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest methods that suit the individual's needs. Decisions about techniques are made collaboratively and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Confirm the session formats available before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, for example by removing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a work break. It can also give options for quieter surroundings or reduced visual demands if that helps someone engage more comfortably.
