Open Hearts Connect
FAMILY THERAPIST BASED IN GAUTENG, SOUTH AFRICA
Our guiding pillars.

Philosophy
Family therapy offers a supportive space for exploring emotional and relational connections while building resilience together. It invites families to creatively navigate challenges and strengthen their relationships through open hearts—willing to love, listen, empathize, forgive, and show compassion.

Mission
Our mission is to bring relational and individual healing and growth. First, we strive to assist families in healing from their pain and challenges. We then aim to help them grow from their experiences. Healing and post-traumatic growth are a journey; we help each individual heal and grow at their own pace.

Values
We believe that people can heal and reconcile. We also believe that life-changing lessons can be learned from pain and sorrow. We help people use these lessons to transform their presence and make healthy future decisions.

WELCOME!
Hi, I am Dr. Charity Mokgaetji Somo, known as Dr. Mokgaetji.
Whether you’re going through a tough time, feeling stuck in a relationship, or simply need someone to talk to, this is a space where you can breathe, reflect, and find new ways forward. We’ll focus on what matters to you—where you’re stuck, what feels heavy, and what kind of life and relationships you want to build. You don’t need to have all the answers. We’ll figure it out together, one step at a time. Come as you are. You’re not alone, and you’re always welcome here.
