With Your Hand in Ours, We Walk this Your journey Together
Our Story
Esanju Integrative Wellness was born out of a deeply personal journey—one that shaped me as both a parent and an entrepreneur. My daughter was born with cerebral palsy in 2002. Over the years, I have experienced the immense challenge of balancing caregiving for a special needs child, now a young adult, with the demands of work and life.
I faced the struggle of finding reliable, consistent help when resources were limited. I know firsthand the exhaustion and worry of trying to do it all alone. That’s why I created a service I so often needed myself: affordable, trustworthy respite care.
At the same time, I realized that caregivers themselves need emotional support. That’s why Esanju Integrative Wellness also provides accessible, high-quality emotional health services through virtual platforms—so you can heal while your loved one is cared for.
We offer two service categories: Emotional Wellness (Virtual) and Respite Care (In-Person & In-Home).
At esanju Integrative Wellness we provides accessible, high-quality emotional health support services through virtual platforms. We offer individual therapy, group therapy, workshops, and self-help resources tailored to adults.
Our objective is to improve the emotional well-being of adults by providing accessible, compassionate, and professional online support.
At Esanju Integrative Respite Care Services, we provide compassionate and reliable respite care services designed to meet the unique needs of special needs children and young adults. Our experienced caregivers are here to offer you peace of mind, whether it's for a few hours, an entire day, or even overnight
A safe, nurturing environment where your loved one can thrive while you rest or work.
A trained caregiver comes to your home, providing personalized, compassionate support.
Need to attend a meeting, appointment, or social event? We’ll be there—even if you don’t have a regular caregiver.
To improve the emotional well-being of adults and families by providing accessible, compassionate, and professional online support—while offering reliable respite care that gives family caregivers true peace of mind.
You can trust us because I’ve been there. And the journey continues.
Getting started with Esanju Integrative Wellness is simple. Whether you need emotional support or respite care, we follow the same client-centred process.
Step 1: Reach Out
Contact us via phone, WhatsApp, email, or the quote form on this website. Tell us what you need – even if you are unsure.
Step 2: Free Initial Conversation
We will call you (15–20 minutes) to understand your situation, answer questions, and explain how we can help.
Step 3: Matching & Scheduling
For therapy/coaching: We match you with a therapist based on your needs and availability.
For respite care: We match you with a caregiver based on your loved one's needs, your location, and preferred hours.
Step 4: First Session or Care Visit
Virtual therapy: A secure video link is sent to you.
Respite care: A caregiver arrives at your home or you bring your loved one to our day centre.
Step 5: Ongoing Support
We check in regularly. Adjustments are always possible – more hours, different caregiver, change of therapist. You are in control.
"From first call to first session – typically within 48 hours."
We believe in starting with understanding – not assumptions.
Initial Assessment (50–60 minutes)
Your first session is an evaluation. We ask about your current challenges, history, goals, and any previous diagnoses.
We do not require a formal diagnosis to begin therapy. You can start with everyday stress, burnout, anxiety, or simply feeling stuck.
If you have an existing diagnosis (e.g., depression, PTSD, anxiety disorder), we use that information to tailor our approach.
For Medical Aid Claims
If you need a formal diagnosis for medical aid purposes, your therapist will provide one after the assessment.
You will receive a detailed invoice you can submit to your medical aid.
Care Needs Assessment (virtual or in-person, 30 minutes, free)
We ask about:
Your loved one's age, diagnosis, and specific needs (mobility, feeding, communication, behaviour, medication)
Any medical equipment or routines
Triggers, preferences, and calming strategies
Your goals for respite care (e.g., "I need to attend meetings twice a week" or "I need overnight care once a month")
No formal medical diagnosis required for respite care. A parent or guardian's description is sufficient. For complex medical needs (e.g., suctioning, tube feeding), we may request a letter from your doctor to ensure caregiver safety.
"We meet you where you are – no unnecessary paperwork or delays."
Once we understand your needs, we create a structured weekly plan. Plans are flexible and can change as your needs change.
"You choose the rhythm. We provide the consistency."
Starting can feel overwhelming. We have removed every barrier we can think of.

There are other therapy practices. There are other care agencies. But Esanju Integrative Wellness is different – by design

" The caregiving skills training changed how I approach my daughter's needs. I used to feel guilty taking breaks. Now I understand: rest is not selfish - It's necessary."
Caregiving Skills Trainning
I was drowning in caregiver burnout. My weekly sessions with Esanju gave me back myself. For the first time in years I feel seen - not just as a Mom, but as a person
