I am a Clinical Social Worker and School Counsellor with a Master’s degree of Social Science specializing in Clinical Social Work. I have 15+ years of experience working with adults, adolescents, families, and group work. My experience has been working at Kenilworth Clinic psychiatric unit both in the adolescent and adult wards and more recently as Head of a school counselling department working with children and their parents. I work with children, adults and families, toward a holistic approach to their overall well-being. It is my philosophy that are all searching for a sense of wholeheartedness and meaningful connection.
It is my philosophy that we are all searching for a sense of wholeheartedness and meaningful connection. I work a lot with Mindfulness based practices and DBT techniques. Our purpose and meaning rests on our ability to thrive within relationships in our lives, including our relationship with ourselves and our ability to be grounded and mindful.
It is hard to often navigate the complexities in life while feeling alone, especially as life has to be done while feeling hurt. So connect with me and lets travel this journey together.
