My approach is optimistic and creative Whilst problems can be serious and painful, I intend that our conversations will be uplifting. ‘Problem stories’ can become overwhelming and it can be almost impossible to separate ourselves from them. This is where narrative therapy comes in. Together, we will disentangle problems stories and you will step into new, life-giving stories. I have been trained for the last 22 years by one of the world's best-known therapists. I taught counselling at postgraduate level for ten years, I have published widely about my work and give regular workshops and trainings. You are in good hands with me.
As a family therapist, teen therapist, child therapist, and adult and relationship therapist, I have worked with almost every imaginable issue over my 27 years of practice. Anxiety, depression, family issues, and relationship issues are the most common problems people bring to me.
Please do reach out to me. I promise you that I will leave no stone unturned in working with you to help you to free yourself from whatever problems/problem stories have been bothering you. Funded sessions may be available for you and family members through your employer via Ignite, Clearhead or Gumboot Friday for young people.

My main approach is narrative therapy. We will look at the narratives that have been holding you back in life and invent new ones that will enable you to live your life more confidently and powerfully. All of the approaches that I use are deeply respectful, collaborative and strength-based.
