About
Pause and Reflect
Jessica Nadine Pieterse- I am the owner and founder of Selah Specialist Wellness Counselling. I am an ASCHP accredited Specialist Wellness Counsellor and have my BA (HSS) Psychological Counselling degree and a BA(Hons) degree in Psychology.
I offer online Christian based counselling. This approach incorporates a biblical understanding of how we’re intentionally made, as psychological, physical and spiritual beings. We hold that all three of these dimensions play a vital part in our mental wellbeing, our health and our happiness.
I offer counselling for:
In this holistic approach we strive to evoke hope, awaken purpose, empower, stir passion and inspire individuals to step out and begin to truly live and thrive.
Selah has many possible meanings: to praise, silence, end, to measure or weigh in the balances and my favourite...to pause and reflect. This, to pause and reflect, is a vital part of healing. To pause, stop everything, and reflect (on what is good, on what has transpired, on the hope that lies ahead, on gratitude, on who God is, and on who I want to be) is a beautiful and healing process.
I have a deeply rooted desire to see individuals and couples find healing, succeed and thrive. I personally walked a road with breast cancer and had to deal with the trauma, stress, fear, uncertainty and anxieties that this diagnosis and treatment presents.
