I have been working in the fields of family therapy and stress-related disorders and conditions for more than twenty-two years, since being an army chaplain both in the South African and Australian Defence Forces during times of military conflict (I served for extensive periods on the front lines of battle and experienced the horrors of traumatic incidents, death, loss, brokenness, anger and excessive aggression behind retaliation on the front line). Touched by the distress of those around me, I realised that we have to be proactive and therefore intentionally develop sustainable resilience before facing extreme distress!
I specialise in helping couples, families and family members move on from chronic stress to sustainable resilience. I prefer to help pre-married couples and family members to develop sustainable resilience, even before life and relationships become too stressful.
If you struggle with stress-related emotions like anxiety, anger, brokenness, sadness, grief, irritation, incompetence, deprivation, frustration, guilt, shame, disrespect, being neglected, disempowered, betrayed, unwell, confused, lonely or hopeless, I would love to help you towards wholeness!
