Lux Counselling
What does your company do?
Lux Counselling (Pty) Ltd is a trauma-informed mental health practice based in South Africa. We specialize in supporting individuals—especially women and survivors of gender-based violence—on their journey to healing and wholeness. Our services include one-on-one trauma counselling, mental health workshops, corporate wellness training, and digital healing programs. Through a blend of clinical expertise and culturally sensitive care, we help clients reconnect with their inner selves and build emotionally resilient lives.
What is your biggest success?
Our biggest success has been establishing Lux Counselling as a trusted voice in trauma recovery and mental health advocacy—especially for Black South African women. We’ve delivered healing to hundreds of clients and survivors, secured national brand partnerships, and developed our signature online course, Healing the Inner Self, which helps participants reconnect with their internal world using Parts Work therapy.
What has been your biggest hurdle?
The biggest hurdle has been scaling the business while maintaining the depth and quality of trauma care. As a founder, I’ve had to wear many hats—clinician, marketer, manager—and balancing that with motherhood and advocacy has been challenging. Access to funding and digital infrastructure has also been a barrier to faster growth, especially when serving underserved communities.
