Therapists in Port Elizabeth

Life over recent years has changed dramatically. The fast pace of development in technology is further influencing and changing how we work, live and socialise on a daily basis. As the day-to-day demands increase, we need to develop skills and find ways to consistently deal with everyday challenges which at times, can feel overwhelming.

I typically find tremendous reward in helping people, from children to adolescents and adults who experience difficulties in dealing with life crises from personal identity to addiction. I also work with trauma debriefing and counselling and psychotherapy in individual, group and marital contexts. I have a lot of experience in dealing with psychometric assessments for educational placement purposes as well as neurological assessments.

I offer counselling and life coaching. Clients will come to me with a range of problems and often feel confused. In our work we will clarify the problem and see what is most challenging for you at the present time. We will discover where this confusion arises in the body and mind and be able to see what started it. Perhaps this has been triggered in the past: by an environment, people, a person, upbringing etc. The work we do is non-judgemental and my purpose is to help you find your way out of the confusion and suffering, so you can find success, purpose and meaning in your life. I will be with you all the way

I believe that mental health is an integral part of our well-being which is underpinned by an appreciation of the intricate interplay between the mind, environment, and physiology. Life challenges should not steal your joy but rather be an opportunity for personal growth. I believe that attitude is key therefore changing your perspective about life is a big step towards healing and living a better quality of life. Just like physical health mental health is something to be celebrated and worth investing in. -Carpe Diem-

I believe that each person is an incredibly unique and complex being. I do my utmost to fully understand who you are.

I believe that people's experiences of relationships play a role in how they view themselves and others. I therefore prioritize creating a safe space to explore your concerns.

I see a range of clients, including those that are generally happy and successful in their lives but are facing a challenge with relationships or work and need some extra support in that area.

Wellness is our greatest tool in preventing illness. It is our greatest asset to achieving happiness. So why is wellness not something we all strive for on a daily basis? And I don't mean to be well in the sense that we are free from disease- I mean to be free, healthy and happy in all aspects of our lives: be it social, occupational, physical, spiritual, emotional and psychological. My role will be to assist you in your wellness journey by assessing areas that may need improvement, while always remembering what you are doing right. I also hope to be a sounding board on days that you may need clarity or when it all feels too much.

Amidst these times of disruption of the world as we knew it, many are experiencing a deep sense of loss, uncertainty, fear for the future and a sense of hopelessness.

Consolidating these experiences, allowing the processes to evolve and find expression, in a holistic and meaningful way, can assist in lightening the load that is ours to carry. In adapting to change we are able to reimagine, see possibility and potential and embrace a new way of being that strengthens our resilience
