Ms Jameela Vayej

Registered Psychologist

“My aim is to assist individuals by providing a safe space for them to express themselves. My focus is on career counselling, trauma and grief counselling.”

About Me

I offer a calm, confidential space for you to freely express yourself. We can explore career paths, process trauma, or navigate grief together. This approach helps individuals make sense of difficult experiences, finding clarity and a path forward. It's ideal for those seeking a supportive environment to find their voice.

Approach

Building on that openness, I guide sessions with gentle structure so we can balance emotional processing and practical decision-making. In my quiet, confidential setting in Durban — and through English-language online sessions — we move at a pace that feels manageable, using conversation, short reflective tasks and clear steps between meetings to track progress. For trauma work I offer stabilising techniques and careful pacing; for career concerns we explore values and next steps together. This way of working suits people seeking steady, collaborative support.
