Bonolo Onkgapile Mophosho - Counselling Psychologist & Writer
I graduated with my Masters in Counselling Psychology from the University of the Witwatersrand, as well as registered as a psychologist with the HPCSA, in 2013. Being a psychologist these past years has been a profound journey of self-development, growth, enlightenment and alignment. My training, work experiences as well as the diversity of clients I have encountered has made for a deep sense of peace, ease and a feeling of home in the engagement with the work I do each day.
​
As a therapist, my approach is integrative, weaving together depth psychology, cognitive and behavioral frameworks, as well as innovative modalities such as BrainWorking Recursive Therapy (BWRT) - a modern, neuroscience based therapeutic approach. I find blending the transformative depth of psychoanalytic exploration with the focused, actionable tools of cognitive and behavioral work profoundly fruitful. My integrative approach is rooted in the belief that true healing occurs when we address both the visible challenges and the hidden layers in the depths our psyche.
Whether we're working through limiting beliefs, uncovering unconscious patterns, or navigating present-day challenges, my goal is to create a space for growth, self-discovery, and empowerment. Combining the tools of depth psychology, cognitive and behavioural frameworks, and BWRT, I'm able to guide clients toward change while fostering deeper self-awareness.
The work we do together incorporates the unconscious dynamics that shape our emotions and behaviors, along with practical, solution-focused strategies for growth and healing. Whether working through trauma, strengthening relationships, or achieving greater alignment with your authentic self, I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where exploration and change can unfold.
With this unique lens, informed by both deep reflection and active problem-solving, I am committed to helping you uncover your inner resources, break free from limiting patterns, and move toward a life of balance and fulfillment. I specialize in, and am deeply inspired by, helping individuals find freedom from past traumas, overcome anxiety, and step into a life of purpose and authenticity. Together, we’ll move toward long-term transformation that honors your whole self.​​
Writing has been an important part of my process. It has provided me with a profound outlet for the journey of the unfolding of who I am in, and how, I work. It has been a significant one- of evolution and of becoming. Through writing not only my therapeutic, but also my personal identity, has been forged. I have been through a significant personal process of internal transformation through it over the years, through journaling, poetry and blogging. My writing has provided a comforting, healing and remarkably change inducing platform, since its genesis in my first "Dear Diary..." at the age of 11. Writing is as much a therapy for me as is my psychotherapeutic work, and my aim is to share the knowledge of the magic that is in writing for healing and personal transformation.

I see my work as a gift and a privilege and the experiences I have of walking with many on their paths of healing continue to confirm that it is my purpose.
