About Mind Play

Mindplay is a non-medical integrative counselling,coaching and hypnotherapy  service based in the southern suburbs of Cape Town, offering both online and face-to-face (in person) sessions. The use of mindfulness based practices; mental rehearsal and imagery; client centered affirmation; corrective self-talk and self-healing exercises are included where needed in sessions. Whether you simply need to talk – to better explore and unpack your current situation or past circumstances – or whether you are actively wanting to engage in changing certain  thought-emotion-behavioural patterns that may be limiting you in your life; or if you are needing assistance in reaching a certain desired outcome, my service can be of great value to you.
