I work well with young adults navigating life changes and identity, career challenges and self empowerment and finding their "Flow".
Amidst these times of global disruption, many are experiencing a deep sense of uncertainty, fear for the future and a sense of hopelessness. The advancement of AI threatens employment, the wars create a sense of vulnerability and economic strain, justice seems unattainable as systems and the patriarchy fail us. Our reality and experience requires a safe space for expression in a holistic and meaningful way. This can assist in lightening the load and in adapting to change we are able to reimagine, see possibility and potential, heal, grow and embrace a new way of being that is authentic and resilient.

I help adults and teens navigate life transitions, relationship challenges, and gain insight into their inner world with compassion.
As an IFS-trained-practitioner I support individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, stuck in repeating patterns, or disconnected from themselves. Many clients come during life transitions, relationship challenges, or when coping strategies no longer feel effective. In our work, I help you slow down, understand your inner emotional world, and meet difficult thoughts and feelings with compassion rather than judgment. Using an IFS-informed approach, we explore the different parts of you that carry stress or protection, so patterns begin to soften and you can reconnect with clarity, steadiness, and self-trust.

As a psychodynamic music therapist (HPCSA registered), I work with clients to access unconscious material through both verbal and non-verbal arts processes. This allows us to explore deep-rooted thinking patterns and behaviours, helping clients become aware of their origins and facilitate meaningful change. In today’s busy society, many experience a disconnection between mind, body, and spirit – our sessions focus on restoring that connection, fostering a sense of wholeness and integration. Authenticity and creating a safe, containing space are essential to my practice.

l offer Comprehensive Face to Face, Online or Hybrid Psychological Services: Therapy & Counselling: • Children & Adolescents • Adults & Groups • Marriage & Premarital Counselling Assessments & Evaluations:  • Psychological & Personality Assessments • Risk & Forensic Assessments • Medico-Legal Assessments • Scholastic & Career Assessments
Self-awareness is the foundation of a meaningful relationship with yourself and with others. True personal growth begins when we take the time to understand our inner world: our triggers, relational patterns, and the unconscious drivers behind self-sabotaging behaviours. As Carl Jung stated, 'Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate.' Therapy offers a transformative journey of self-discovery and self-exploration, one that empowers individuals to become experts in their own lives. As a Clinical Psychologist, I offer specialised, evidence-based psychotherapeutic interventions.

FAQ - About Adult Counselling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioural therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.

How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists in South Africa hold various credentials depending on their training. Psychologists and Registered Counsellors must be registered with the Health Professional Council of South Africa (HPCSA). Psychologists have professional designations such as Clinical Psychologist or Counselling Psychologist. General Counsellors are often registered with the Association for Supportive Counsellors and Holistic Practitioners (ASCHP) and their qualifications and practice are overseen by ASCHP. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.

How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
