Meraki Counselling Johannesburg

Meraki Counselling Johannesburg provides professional and compassionate therapy and training to individuals, couples, and organisations. Our team helps clients move from feeling stuck or overwhelmed to gaining clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being.

About Meraki Counselling

Meraki Counselling Johannesburg was founded by Mariska van der Meulen. She has over 10 years of experience in marriage and relationship counselling, individual therapy, and trauma work. Mariska also lectures psychology modules, including marriage counselling, sexual trauma, and social psychology. She brings knowledge and personal insight to every session.

The name “Meraki” reflects our approach. It means putting soul, creativity, and love into your work. This ethos creates a safe and non-judgmental space where clients feel understood and empowered to make meaningful changes.

Individual and Trauma Counselling

We provide one-on-one counselling for adults. Therapy addresses emotional challenges, past trauma, and life transitions. Clients gain practical tools, develop resilience, and achieve personal growth. Our sessions emphasise active participation, self-reflection, and long-term results.

Marriage and Relationship Support

Meraki Counselling Johannesburg offers marriage and relationship counselling. We guide couples to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen emotional intimacy. Each session is personalised to meet the unique needs and goals of every couple. This approach restores connection and fosters lasting relationship satisfaction.

Play Therapy for Children and Teens

We specialise in play therapy for children and adolescents. This approach allows young clients to express emotions, process experiences, and develop coping skills. Parents are included when appropriate, ensuring therapy continues at home. Children gain confidence and feel heard through engaging and age-appropriate activities.

Workshops, Training, and Assessments

Meraki Counselling also provides workshops, talks, and customised training for schools, corporates, and community groups. Topics include stress management, relationship skills, adolescent development, and personal growth. We offer Enneagram assessments and personal coaching to help clients understand themselves and make informed life choices.

Online and Face-to-Face Sessions

Clients can attend sessions in Rosebank or Centurion, or connect remotely via Zoom or WhatsApp video calls. This flexibility ensures therapy remains accessible, convenient, and effective for all clients across Johannesburg.
