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).
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.
