Ikigai Wellness, Counsellor in Mowbray
About
Ikigai Counselling and Wellness, established in 2016, aims to transform mental health in South Africa by addressing issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, burnout, professional growth, personal growth, and relationship growth. Rather than just raising awareness, Ikigai creates “patches of normality” where clients can understand and manage their challenges, grow from their experiences, and become part of a network of “mental warriors” who spread these patches throughout society.
