Chris Fourie – Registered Counsellor & Hypnotherapist

My name is Chris Fourie, and I am a Registered Counsellor with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist. Since 2018, I have been dedicated to supporting individuals through life’s emotional and psychological challenges by providing compassionate, evidence-based care in a safe and supportive environment.

My therapeutic approach is primarily person-centred (Rogerian), founded on the belief that every individual has the capacity for growth, healing, and resilience when offered empathy, acceptance, and understanding. I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely heard, valued, and empowered to explore their thoughts and emotions at their own pace. Where appropriate, I also integrate clinical hypnotherapy as a therapeutic tool to support lasting emotional and behavioral change.

Alongside my private practice, I am a full-time educator. My extensive background includes supporting children as they navigate the emotional, social, and developmental challenges of their formative years. In my clinical work, I help young people experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional distress, suicidal ideation, family difficulties, and trauma, equipping them with healthy coping strategies and long-term emotional resilience.

In private practice, I work with adolescents and adults facing a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, workplace and management conflict, interpersonal difficulties, relationship challenges, self-esteem, life transitions, and personal growth. My goal is to help clients gain greater self-awareness, develop practical coping skills, and move forward with confidence and hope.

I believe that seeking support is a courageous first step towards positive change. Whether you are facing a difficult season, feeling overwhelmed, or simply looking to better understand yourself, I am committed to walking alongside you with empathy, respect, and professionalism.

I look forward to supporting you on your journey towards healing, resilience, and emotional wellbeing.
