Help for legal practitioners

Dear colleague,

As the country’s economy continues to recover since the pandemic, we know that many of our members are overwhelmed and dealing with anxiety, fear and even resilience fatigue. Please know that help is at hand. The LSSA has collaborated with PPS and the Reality Wellness Group to offer telephonic counselling and support.

The professional telephonic counselling service is available 24/7/365. It consists of:

  • Unlimited telephonic counselling available nationally in all official languages.
  • Face-to-face counselling is managed per intake; general recommendation is two to six sessions per incident (will be for the member/employee’s account).
  • The service is also available to immediate family of the legal practitioner or their employee (spouse and/or children living under the same roof).

The wellness programme will be provided to a maximum of 5 000 legal practitioners per month, for an initial period of six months. Contact the reality Wellness Group on: 080 11 22 550 or eppenage@realitywellness.co.za (Please provide your practice number).

When you make contact with Reality Wellness Group you are subject to the terms and conditions of Reality Wellness and the services that they provide. Click here to learn more about the services offered.

The LSSA obtains and shares no data with Reality Wellness. The only information shared is the number of people who use Reality Wellness’s service.
