Ms Jane Mills

Wellness Counselor

About Me

I am a licensed Wellness Counsellor based in Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa. I help you navigate life transitions, relationship and conduct issues, career changes, and divorce. I offer advocacy, counseling, personal development, and wellness support in a confidential, practical space.

Approach

Guiding work through felt experience and clear steps, I slow the pace to notice what’s happening in the body, relationships and day-to-day choices. In sessions—in Cape Town or online, in English—we balance short practical experiments, reflective noticing and occasional advocacy between meetings so changes land in real life. The rhythm is collaborative: we track small shifts, adapt strategies and check emotional safety as we go. People facing transitions, burnout or relationship strain often find this steady, practical-attuned way helpful.
