Everyone has ups and downs in their journey of life, but sometimes you need additional support to navigate particular low points. Your thinking may be cyclical, so addressing the problem from multiple angles, with various lenses, can be the breakthrough that is needed. I work with a Humanistic and Positive Psychology framework that sees you as whole and focuses on your strengths. You are not your trauma, your grief, or your diagnosis. I want to help you to improve your quality of life and to fulfill your potential. I also use Resilience coaching to look at your mental, physical and emotional needs, to identify growth areas.

Everybody faces challenges at different stages of life. Some greater than others. I am always amazed at the strength of the human spirit and the will to survive. My aim is to help the client to focus on their strengths (rather than their weaknesses). Furthermore to capitalise on their strengths and to realise their full potential. In times of crisis people tend to forget that they have actually overcome so much in life already and given the support they need, they will be able continue to do so. My motto is: Never Give Up. Don’t underestimate yourself. There is always a Plan B!

When we aren't feeling like the best version of ourselves, it's tough to engage in our lives in the way we would like to; our daily stress adds up and pulls us away from the things that are important to us. Whether little things in your life are piling up and becoming overwhelming or you are in the midst of a major life transition, accessing support is an important first step to living a value-driven life. Having a dedicated time in which to process our thoughts with an unbiased listener can build the insight we need to thrive.

When it comes to your sexuality: "Are you successful in your career and other areas of your life and yet feel unfulfilled sexually?" And what about your life in general: "Do you often feel stuck and in "auto-pilot mood" yet yearning for more in your life??"

The story that we tell ourselves about our lives and ourselves has a great impact on how we feel and what we give ourselves permission to do in life.
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.

Anaethetizing life.
At a young age I began to discern my high levels of empathy for those in pain & this I believe in part is because of my own story of brokenness. People tended to open up to me quite easily about their personal stories. My whole heart gravitated towards the helping profession specifically within the spaces of healing, empowering , inspiring & teaching. I unequivocally know that my life's work is to help others to become products of their purpose and not their pain.To flourish in the areas of emotion, relationships, meaning, accomplishment and engagement. ( Martin Seligman). To thrive and not merely survive.

Life Coaching Counsellors
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
