Your Therapist - Sara Moosa

Sara Moosa is a Holistic Integrated Counsellor and Breathwork Practitioner, whose journey began with a Psychology qualification from the University of Toronto in 2004. It was a transformative trip to Cape Town, upon graduation, that stirred her soul, where the warmth of the people and a mesmerizing sunset at Oudekraal felt like a homecoming. This mother city—unbeknownst to her, her mother’s city—captured her heart, leading her to spend the next decade as a Designer, Stylist, and Art Director in the creative realms of glossy magazines, advertising agencies, and later, her own creative studio.

In 2016, she felt the call to return to her roots in psychology, completing a postgraduate qualification in counselling and dedicating two years to supervised practice at a Counselling and Recovery Centre in the Cape Flats. This deep dive into the human experience, coupled with her exploration of meditation and breathwork, sparked a profound passion for personal growth and holistic healing.

Her early work — from trauma counseling at an NPO in Kuilsriver to guiding meditation sessions at a yoga studio nestled within the historic Ironworks building in Woodstock, Cape Town’s creative hub — quickly revealed that traditional clinical practice wasn’t the answer. It was through these profound experiences that she began to embrace a more holistic approach, where the power of presence and connection could truly flourish, reshaping the way she worked and the impact she had.

Today, Sara serves as a Specialist Wellness Counsellor and Certified Breathwork Practitioner in private practice. She holds an Advanced Pneumanity Breathwork Practitioner Certification from Breathwork Africa, accredited by the Global Professional Breathwork Alliance and the International Breathwork Foundation. She also completed her Meditation Teacher Training at Anchor Meditation in San Francisco.

In addition to her therapeutic work, Sara has crafted a collection of daily planners and prompt journals designed to inspire curiosity and deepen self-connection through reflection and guided meditations. These offerings are available at various stockists throughout South Africa and on the Heal Grow Flow online store, inviting you to embark on your own journey of self-discovery.
