Our Focus in south africa
Just like the psychological services in South Africa, Thagane Psychological Services works hard to help South Africa to achieve its goal. We offer most of the services below:
Public mental health services: These are services offered by government-run clinics and hospitals and are often low-cost or free. They may include psychiatric services, counseling, and medication management.
Private mental health services: These are services offered by private mental health professionals, such as psychologists, psychiatrists, and counselors. They may be covered by medical aid or paid for out-of-pocket.
Non-profit mental health organizations: These are organizations that provide mental health services to underserved communities, often on a sliding fee scale. Some examples include the South African Depression and Anxiety Group and the South African Federation for Mental Health.
Employee assistance programs (EAPs): These are services offered by employers to their employees, typically providing access to counseling and other mental health resources.
It’s important to note that in South Africa, there is a shortage of mental health professionals, particularly in rural areas. This can make accessing services challenging, and it may be necessary to travel to a larger city to find a provider. Additionally, there can be stigma surrounding mental illness in some communities, which can make seeking help difficult. However, there are many resources available to those seeking mental health support in South Africa, and it’s important to reach out for help when needed.
