Not a professional counselor
There should be an option for zero stars, because that would have been my choice in this case. This person is not a professional. He is not registered with any professional body in South Africa. He tries his luck on a very, very complicated territory where he uses hocus pocus quack approaches, pretending to be a trauma counselor. No-one who isn't a highly specialized psychiatric doctor should advertise themselves as trauma councellors. The mind and the psyche are two highly intricate components of a human being. *****s like Shawn Kritzinger elicits your most intimate traumatic events in your life, and then has no clue how to walk you through those emotions. Instead he creates emotional chaos and has no clue how to manage it. It's an absolute abomination that these kinds of people are allowed to sell themselves as trauma specialists. Luckily I ended my "therapy" immediately once I realized that he's going to do far more harm than good with the trauma I've been battling with for years. Because he's not a professional, he's not registered at any professional institution, and for that reason he also has no obligation to keep your innermost trauma and personal information confidential. Protect your psychological integrity and your privacy and rather see a psychologist or psychiatrist who specializes in trauma counseling. It is such a complicated field that those professionals refer patients to their colleagues who do specialize in trauma counseling. Be responsible with the matters related to your mind, psyche and consciousness.

SHAUN KRITZINGER
Shaun Kritzinger, advertising himself as a "trauma counselor", can't produce any proof of any credentials. I unfortunately established this only after I started "trauma counselling" with him and realised that he is definitely not who he markets himself to be. The fact that his credentials appear nowhere on his website or elsewhere (which I only established after starting "counseling" with him), which credentials are apparently then non-existent, shows during his "counseling" sessions. His business is called SK TRANSFORMATION LIFE COACHING, situated in Hartbee****rt. I had a very unsatisfactory experience with him during his "trauma counseling sessions" and I also received very inappropriate text messages from him during my dealings with him. It's impossible to report him to any professional bodies like the HPCSA, as he is not registered with them. He boasts of 15 years' experience in counselling, psychology (!!!), NLP, body language and coaching, whereas 15 years ago, he was barely 19 or 20 years old. This in itself makes alarm bells ring. He offers services in trauma counselling, but during these "sessions" it becomes clear that something is amiss. Once I established that he isn't registered with the HPCSA, I checked with other regulatory bodies, and he wasn't registered with them either. Upon discovering that I was seeing someone to assist me with severe trauma, who hadn't had proven credentials or registration at any respected professional bodies, I stopped paying his bills, as he was by no means offering professional services. He then started threatening me via text messages, stating that he would make public the information that I'd shared with him during my "sessions" with him (a very odd threat, as I shared trauma related information with him that nobody else would be interested in). The mentality he possesses that makes it acceptable to him to threaten his "trauma patient" is beyond me. This probably underlines the fact that he has no relevant credentials to show. Be very careful and research his credentials (good luck) , and whether he is registered with any professional body (I'll not be holding my breath), before booking with him, to save valuable time that you could have spent with a professional person.
