My focus is on creating safe spaces for my clients, especially the young people in general, girls, women and children in particular. I strive to provide as far as possible broad mental health care that empowers individuals to exist in the communities they live in. Clients bring in their strenghts, and solutions hence the need to use these as anchors for a better life going forward. Most clients have resilience and my objective is always to elevate the strenghs they bring to the therapy room, without undermining the pain and trauma presented, albeit virtual, it still is a pscychotherpy room/space.
My approach in therapy is anchored in Cognitive Beharioural Therapy approach and Positive Psychology, while indeed respecting the past experiences, the use of psychoanalytic/psychodynamic therapy in instances where there is a need for catharsis is not ignored. Am competent in use of Sesotho, Xhosa, isiZulu and Setswana, English.
Clients need safe spaces to feel heard and understood, and to feel safe, hence I offer pre - intake interviews to establish contact and provide space for my new clients-to reflect on a good fit for effective healing.
