Brigitte Parfitt – Registered Counsellor – Wynberg

Brigitte Parfitt serves as a Registered Counsellor at the Life Transformation Centre in Wynberg, Cape Town. Drawing on her personal journey through life’s challenges, she developed a deep empathy that inspired her to pursue professional training. Consequently, she completed advanced certificates in Trauma Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. Her holistic philosophy integrates the spirit, mind, and body, ensuring that each client receives comprehensive support in a safe, non-judgemental environment.

Early in her career, Brigitte collaborated with local community clinics and non-profit organisations across Cape Town. She led school-based mental health workshops and facilitated outreach programmes that reached vulnerable youth. Over time, she expanded her expertise to include crisis intervention, bereavement counselling, and resilience training. As a result, her practice at LTC combines rigorous, evidence-based methods with compassionate, client-centred care.

Brigitte’s dedication to continuous learning keeps her at the forefront of therapeutic innovation. She attends national conferences and leads peer-supervision groups, mentoring junior counsellors in best practices. Therefore, she maintains a practice that not only transforms individual lives but also strengthens the broader counselling community.
