Every life tells a story, uniquely shaped by our experiences, beliefs, and relationships. Sometimes, certain chapters feel heavy or uncertain—marked by anxiety, grief, trauma, life transitions, or challenges like women’s health struggles. There are moments when it feels hard to share what we’re going through or when we don’t want to burden family or friends. Yet, the need for understanding, connection, or change remains. In our work together, we’ll create a safe and supportive space to explore what matters most to you, uncovering beliefs, patterns, and emotions and moving toward a life lived with greater peace, ease, and alignment.

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!

Over 10 years of running a family business while managing a family.

As well as typical talk therapy, I utilise non-verbal, creative interventions to enable the expression of feelings, emotions and thoughts through drawing or using miniatures during sessions. This helps to communicate relevant issues and enhance self-understanding, self-development and healing when finding the right words is simply too difficult.

I support individuals who have come to a point in their life where things are “just not right”, whether it is a general feeling of dissatisfaction, loss of meaning, or a specific situation causing them significant distress (e.g. issues in relationships, workplace, health, …). Opening a safe space to share what is going on is a first step towards feeling better and moving forward. Sometimes, exploring past events and emotions brings an understanding that can soothe and help to let go. When you are ready, I work with you to better understand your context, resources and obstacles, and help you build a more grounded and meaningful life.
