Well done for reaching out for help...your first step towards healing!
As a licensed marriage and family therapist we will work together
on resolving conflicts, and learning new coping skills for the stressors you are experiencing.
I also specialize in couple counselling, infidelity and betrayal issues, blended families, divorce and single parenting.
I have a passion for empowering individuals to reach their unique potential. I am creative in helping clients find their strengths in challenging situations by applying effective therapeutic and inter-personal skills. I use an eclectic approach embracing CBT, solution focused therapy and EFT and Gottman method for couples. I have a
MA in Clinical Psychology, BA Psychology, BED post grad in School Guidance and counseling, Mediator and Divorce Mediator, Teacher Certification and EMDR Cert.
I am South African; I have lived and worked in many multicultural settings which has equipped me with compassion and understanding for differences in culture and beliefs. My life experience as a wife, mother, grandmother and educator, has been beneficial in broadening my understanding as a professional in my career as a licensed therapist.
Remember : whatever the problem, there is always hope, a new day and a new beginning....

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for (Louise) Karin Wiese. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
My review of Louise is that she has year of experience in this particular area and it shows.
When I contacted her about my experiences she knew what to ask. She was ready with all the questions. Once I answered those she knew what situation I was in. That’s when her magic came in. The more I talk, the more she gets to know me. And the better she can help me. I’ve never done therapy before and this has been my shining light that’s giving me hope for a better future. 5 stars recommended
