I work with adults and adolescents who may be feeling very sad and want to make some changes in their lives. I have many years of experience working with people who are suffering from substance abuse disorders and wish to work on their emotional and psychological health, to boost their chances of sobriety. I also work with couples wishing to improve their relationship. I am an LGBTQ-friendly practitioner.
I am a Counselling Psychologist experienced in assisting people who feel depressed; stuck or lonely. I work psychoanalytically; both in short-term work (say 12 sessions) and longer-term work. The goals of treatment are based on your needs. I can also offer non-directive psychoanalytic therapy for people wanting a deeper process. Sessions are weekly.
Please email or call me for a brief, informal conversation about what you are hoping for in a therapy process. Sometimes that is a good way to get the ball rolling. My fees are aligned with medical aid rates, which may be around R1300 per 50-minute session. A discounted fee for students and psychology interns is available on request.
