I enjoy engaging with people from all walks of life. I've worked with clients from a diverse range of settings - from townships & rural clinics, to psychiatric facilities & now private practice. Life can be incredibly overwhelming, which is why it's crucial to find a supportive space to let it all out & find healthy, effective ways to cope. If you're wanting to learn more about yourself & how to promote your mental health, needing practical skills to improve your relationships, mindfulness skills to deal with your thoughts or ways to manage emotions, so that you're in control - look no further! I'm only working online at the moment.
I work from a supportive, person-centred approach & take the lead from my client, meeting them where they're at. I draw on multiple theoretical frameworks (CBT, ACT & DBT) to suit my client's needs & the therapeutic relationship. I try to empower my clients with various skills, so they feel equipped to deal with life's challenges. Online sessions only.
Providing clients with a safe & comfortable space to share means everything to me. In this overwhelming world, our relationships are often all we have, which is why I place so much importance on creating loyal & trustworthy connections with clients – you never know when that could make all the difference! If you're looking for support, I'm here to help.
