Sometimes life can be hard and we can feel overwhelmed and defeated by circumstances and experiences. Do you feel disconnected or isolated from your friends and family? Do you feel tired all the time? Do you feel burned out? Do you feel anxious and uncertain about what's happening in your life? Are you struggling with a relationship, whether it's a family member or loved one? Do you often question yourself and your worth or value? Do you sometimes wake up wishing you were someone else? If you answered yes to any of these questions, I am here to hold your hand and listen to what you have experienced, how you think, and how you feel.

I am a registered Clinical Psychologist in private practice who works with individuals from all walks of life. I provide comprehensive and individualised psychological interventions tailored to the individual. I have a strengths-based approach to therapy which recognizes the client's natural abilities and resilience as critical to their progress in therapy.

I have a psychotherapy practice that offers clients specialized psychotherapeutic care. My practice is for adults who need help with problems like mood disorders, substance use disorders and even aspects of their own personality they may find difficult to change. I like to collaborate with clients, to think together with them about what they may need to reflect on that will bring them value and meaning in their day-to-day life. In addition to this I think it is important to examine patterns of excessive or unhelpful behaviour that compromise their feeling of self-coherence, agency and place in the world.

Life as we know it is challenging – it’s hard! The future seems uncertain, security one thought you had isn’t so secure anymore. Constant stress and past trauma(s) may leave one feeling alone, confused, burnt out, lost, stuck, or that it all has become too much. The constant change and financial struggles seem to be ever-increasing. All (or some) of this leads to anxiety, depression, and feelings that leave us feeling helpless and even hopeless. It also skews the way that we perceive others and our surroundings. You are not alone, there is help at hand!

Creating a space where clients can explore their authentic selves is paramount in the therapeutic process. This requires forming a human connection with the client whilst maintaining the therapeutic relationship. As human beings we strive to form an understanding of ourselves, others and the world - this fosters connection, awareness and acceptance, all of which play a fundamental role in the healing process.

I have always been interested in understanding why people think and feel the way they do and how this may inform their behavior. As a result, I aim to work with clients to gain understanding of themselves, by accompanying them in their therapeutic journey of self discovery where they can realize their choices as to discover meaning and purpose in their lives, even in the face of adversity.

Apart from my counselling training at Rhodes University and the South African College of Applied psychology, I have been trained in mindfulness and hypnotherapy, which I have found to be incredibly useful in assisting my clients to build more self-awareness and to use their mind more productively. Whether you simply need someone to talk to - to better explore and unpack your current situation or past circumstances - or whether you are actively wanting to engage in changing certain thought, emotional and behavioural patterns that may be limiting you in your life, my approach can be of great value to you.

Change and transition happen throughout life. Some of these changes lead to happiness whilst others bring on sadness and confusion.

Psychotherapy can be both a challenging and a rewarding process. Many people approach the therapeutic process to talk about what’s wrong, but it is also important to talk about what’s right. Each person has natural areas of strength, we aim to capitalise on to develop a more positive outlook, increase coping skills, reduce distress and improve relationships. By implementing a collaborative approach that combines goal-directed and insight-oriented interventions, we will work together to create new paths towards well-being. Our integrative orientation applies cognitive-behavioural, psychodynamic and strength based techniques to incre
