Personal Statement
"I am what I do, not what I say I'll do" - Carl Jung. With that said, I can admit that I am hardworking, empathetic and goal-driven. My family and friends have described me as a caring, compassionate and perfectionistic individual.
My concern is always about my client and how they experience the service that I deliver as well as how well I represent the company that I work for.

Employment History:
October 2022 - December 2023 - Trauma and Suicide Lay Counsellor at (most recent employer hidden for confidentiality) Rivonia, Sandton, South Africa, (Home/Mobile)Duties included:
My duties included counseling, containing and referring trauma and suicidal callers. I was answering phone calls made by callers to the SADAG helpline. My cases ranged from Depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation and truama to more severe cases such as Bipolar episodes, substance abuse, active suicides and schizophrenia. SADAG provided an intense 6 week training course and it is preferred if you have an educational background in psychology or if you are currently in the process of obtaining a degree/post-grad.
I worked from 4-8 hours week, counseling callers and making sure that they are not a danger to themselves or others. Most of the calls were depression and anxiety related. For the last four months of my time at SADAG, I spent around 16 hours a week at the call centre.
I volunteered for this position to work towards a permanent position, unfortunately this was an NPO, and I never got formally employed.
