The person owning this business, 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 appears nowhere on his website or elsewhere (which I only established after starting "counseling" with him), and is apparently then non-existent, shows during his "counseling" sessions. I had a very unsatisfactory experience with him during his "trauma counseling sessions" and by also receiving extremely inappropriate text messages from him, to add insult to injury. 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. 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 spare valuable time that you could have spent with a professional person.
