I am a psychologist and psychotherapist and I provide individual adult psychotherapy to persons over the age of 18. I assist people wanting change that is more focussed on deeper personal understanding rather than mere symptom relief. I help people to better understand themselves and develop more meaningful lives and thereby allow them to have more choices in life and break out of repetitive patterns that my be troubling and problematic. I aim to provide a safe space for you to feel heard and become yourself more fully. I also see people who do not have a diagnosis and are seeking personal growth.

You've done the work. Read the books, tried the approaches, maybe even done therapy before. And yet something keeps running: A pattern you can name but can't shift. That gap between knowing and changing is exactly what I work with. I see adults who are ready to move forward, not just understand their past. If you want real change, not endless processing, you're in the right place.

I work with people who appreciate inner-work and creative understanding and want to integrate a deeper level of soul and meaning into their lives. Many people I see have reached a point of seeing how old conditioning and patterns have been limiting their inner and outer lives and are wanting to make significant changes. Many people are at a crossroads, undergoing real loss, grief, or disappointment, and needing to find new meaning and direction.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or caught in patterns you don’t fully understand. Perhaps anxiety, low mood, grief, trauma, or relationship difficulties are weighing on you. You might notice yourself becoming reactive, shutting down in conflict, or repeating dynamics that leave you feeling frustrated or hurt. You may be wanting relief, but also deeper clarity — to better understand yourself, feel more emotionally steady, strengthen your relationships, and move forward with greater confidence. Most of all, you may be looking for a space where you can feel genuinely heard, supported, and understood without judgment

You see yourself repeating the same patterns. You're ready to understand the meaning these hold in your life, to finally let old patterns go and allow for new possibilities to arise. You want a space where you can connect deeply with yourself, understand who you truly are, and move towards greater alignment with your authentic self.

You’re the one who’s always been “too sensitive,” “too deep,” or “too much.” You’ve carried everyone else’s emotions while quietly neglecting your own. Now you feel tired, unseen, and ready for change. You want to heal the wounds that keep replaying — the trauma, anxiety, or self-doubt that’s dimmed your light. You crave peace, authenticity, and real connection — not quick fixes, but lasting healing that feels like coming home to yourself. Deep down, you just want to feel safe in your own skin again — calm, grounded, and whole.

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!

You've outgrown surface-level support — and you know it. You may be navigating grief, trauma, burnout, spiritual crisis, or a disconnection you can't name. You've sought help before, but conventional counselling left you feeling reduced or unheard. Spiritual spaces offered insight without psychological grounding. You've done some of the work, read the books, and you're standing at a threshold you can't cross alone. That threshold is exactly where this work begins. What you're getting with me is someone holds psychological depth, energetic competency, and spiritual fluency — an authentic combination rarely found in one practitioner.

Spirituality Therapists
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.

What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.

Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.

How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
​​Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
