Top Psychologist launch website to offer Online Therapy in South Africa

MyPR: Top Psychologist launch website to offer Online Therapy in South Africa:

Online Therapy offered in Gauteng by registered psychologist

The recent outbreak of Covid-19 resulted in a lot of helping professions re-evaluating their standard ways of lending a helping hand. Amongst these were the psychologists and psychiatrists. And their main issue was: “Is Online Therapy (counselling) as effective as face-to-face counseling? Or can Online Therapy (counseling) be as effective?”

Dr. Johan Cloete is one of the psychologists that believe that the effect of Covid-19 will be felt by psychologists long after Covid-19 is gone. According to him, Covid-19 will result in a permanent shift in the way that psychologists work. Not because it is the choice of the psychologists. BUT because it will over time become the preferred mode of patients seeking the help of psychologists.

Dr. Cloete is convinced that patients do not ask the question of effectiveness as much as psychologists ask the question. For people seeking help the privacy and safety of their own home )or office) weighs much more than the question about effectiveness. “In any way”, he adds, “Research showed that Online Therapy is as effective as traditional therapy – and in some cases even more effective. As soon as more patients experience Online Therapy they will become convinced that it is a good alternative to traditional therapy. Then people will flock to Online Therapists in growing numbers. Changing the face of psychotherapy in the world forever.”

It is this conviction that brought dr. Cloete to the decision to shift his practice to a primary Online Therapy (counselling) practice. Even though he will still see patients face to face, he will concentrate on Online therapy but recently launched a website (online-therapy.co.za) to promote his services online.

Dr. Johan Cloete currently offers his Online Therapy (counselling) to people in South Africa but believes that he will soon be doing Online Counselling with people from all over the world. Because that is one of the prime benefits of Online Therapy, that is, that it creates the possibility that anyone can search and find the best possible therapist to help him/her work through a problem… anywhere in the world.

Museum Africa: Art Collection

The museum’s collection is staggering, housing approximately 850,000 objects that range from the prehistoric to the contemporary. It is one of the few institutions that attempts to tell the story of Southern Africa from the Stone Age to the nuclear age. The “Johannesburg Transformations” exhibition is the museum’s centerpiece, dragging the visitor through the chaotic evolution of the city. It doesn’t shy away from the grime; it features detailed reconstructions of “shack life,” the illegal “shebeens” (speakeasies) of the 1950s, and the vibrant but overcrowded “backyard rooms” that defined the black urban experience during Apartheid. One of its most sobering permanent displays is the “Tried for Treason” exhibit, which meticulously documents the 1956 Treason Trial. Visitors can see the portraits of all 156 accused—including Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu, and Albertina Sisulu—and read the “little red books” placed beneath each photo, where the public is invited to write their own reflections and facts about these liberation icons.

Deep within the museum’s labyrinthine halls, you’ll find specialized branches that are world-class in their own right. The Bensusan Museum of Photography sits on the top floor, acting as a shrine to the visual history of the continent. It contains everything from rare 19th-century daguerreotypes to the legendary photojournalism of the Drum magazine era. Meanwhile, the Geology Museum houses over 17,000 specimens, including a definitive collection of the rocks and minerals that made Johannesburg possible. It is a place where you can see the actual gold-bearing conglomerate reefs of the Witwatersrand up close, stripped of their commercial value and presented as scientific wonders.
