I’m a Gestalt counsellor from South Africa living in Europe, specialising in emotional support for expats and foreigners living away from home and in other cultures. My clients are based around the world. I give them an open minded, multicultural perspective and an understanding of what it's like to not belong or be at home. I create a safe, transformative space where my clients can get to know themselves deeply, reconnect with themselves, confront their obstacles, experience change and authenticity, and develop emotional tools & resources to manage stress and navigate the challenges of today’s often imbalanced and unhealthy world.
My special areas of focus are: Stress and Anxiety - The difficulties of expat life abroad - Modern society's challenges - Relationships and conflict - Emotional crisis - Disconnection - and Healing the relationship with your body. I work with clients online and in-person, in English and Spanish, giving individual sessions as well as group circles & workshops
I have been through my own process of emotional healing and I engage with my clients as a genuine, relatable, imperfect human. I work with you, as a whole, with all the external and internal influences that shape who you are. Everything you’re looking for already exists within you. You are capable of making the changes you search for. I have. You can too.

Before making any decisions, I like to organise a 20 min chat so you can tell me a bit about you, what you're looking for, ask me any questions and see whether you feel comfortable. It's a chance for you to see if it feels like the right fit for you with no pressure to commit to anything right away.

My approach emphasises the mind-body connection and together in sessions we focus on developing awareness of your body and emotions in addition to your mind. Without including the body, we continuously loop around in our thoughts without truly connecting with and understanding the messages from our body and emotions, meaning learning remains theoretical and difficult to apply to our real life.

Gestalt is a deep and powerful form of therapy. It is a powerful tool to bring focus to emotions and sensations in the body in the present moment. Gestalt seeks to reroot us in our body and become aware of how it speaks to us, and to learn to live more authentically, aligned with our needs and purpose.
