The Humanitas Counselling Students are an amazing group of people. Most of them have either a degree or an honours degree in Psychology or Social Work and each one of them is passionate about working with people. They have recently completed their theoretical counselling training with the Vita Nova Counselling Centre and are now ready to start with their practical component of the course.

Due to the current COVID – 19 situation, Vita Nova has decided to allow the students to volunteer their time and effort, not only in the form of face to face counselling sessions at the amazing organisations and institutions who we have partnered with, but also to make their services available to the general public online via Zoom; free of charge.

Our Humanitas Counselling Students are ready and eager to connect, listen and talk with you. If you would like to book a free counselling session via Zoom – please have a look at the different people who are able to help. Choose the person you would like to book your session with and click on the whatsapp button under their profiles. They will get back to you as soon as possible.

Please note that our student counsellors will contact you within 24 hours (Monday – Friday 08:00 – 17:00) after the request is received.

In Case of emergency please contact the following:

Life Line: 0861 322 322

SADAG: 011 234 8182

Suicide Emergency: 0800 567 567

Thank you for wanting to make use of our free counselling platform. Please note that in order for this process to continue we require the following information from you as well as your consent that counselling can take place. Once everything is filled out your request will be sent to the relevant counsellors and they will respond within 24 hours after the request is received (this is excluding weekends).
