About Gomezga
Gomezga Simfukwe is an ACA counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions and relationship problems. He speaks plainly and aims to make therapy feel approachable. He offers a calm space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment.
Seeking help can feel hard and he supports people through that first step. Gomezga uses practical conversation to uncover what matters most to each person. He draws on Narrative approaches to help people reframe their stories and notice how past events shape present choices.
Background and approach
He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people act on values rather than get stuck in anxious thinking. Attachment-based ideas guide much of his work when relationships and early experiences are part of the issue. He pays attention to how patterns formed in close relationships affect trust, boundaries and communication now.
Client-centred practice means sessions are guided by the person's priorities and pace rather than a fixed agenda. Gomezga has seven years of experience working with trauma, grief and complex concerns such as codependency and substance use. He combines straightforward conversation with evidence-informed skills like behavioural experiments and acceptance strategies.
The aim is to build clearer choices and steadier coping, one step at a time. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. He works with individuals who want practical support to manage emotions, repair relationships and cope with major life changes.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how he works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Gomezga directly how he uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How narrative and acceptance approaches work online
Narrative Therapy helps people see the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. Online sessions let you talk through those stories, notice patterns, and try small changes to how you describe events and choices. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing painful thoughts and choosing actions based on what matters most. In an online session you can practise short exercises that help you stay connected to values even when emotions run high. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current trust and communication. Working remotely still allows focused conversation about boundaries, safety and rebuilding connection.
Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify goals and test which methods feel most useful. Sessions are guided by the person's priorities, and plans are adjusted as progress and needs change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or need to fit therapy into a busy day. These formats make it easier to attend sessions from work, home or between commitments and let therapy adapt to everyday life.
