Hello. Id like to warmly invite you to book a session with me. You may have gone through trauma or are in addiction or just be seeking relief from stress- looking for actual tools to live well. I use many different brain based, somatic modalities (think "mind body") to help you achieve your goals. I have 20 yrs of counselling experience and 40 odd yrs of life experience. Bring your dog, favourite blanket or cuppa so you're comfortable whilst we relax in the beauty of the Deep South of Cape Town, or from your own home! Medical aid savings can be accessed, not PMB.
After our initial conversation, we will decide together how to proceed safely. I offer a range of Integrative therapies and somatic (body) work such as TRE, Eye Movement/ Position Protocols, Hypnotherapy, Parts work, Emotional Freedom Technique "tapping", Quantum Energy coaching, addiction therapy, along with other mindfulness modalities.
Please feel free to contact me to get a feel of who I am.

My lovely clients usually come to me in a state of stress/ trauma. From the first session, I offer you a calming process so that you have a lifelong tool to help yourself. Thereafter I will teach you other ways to resource yourself but until you can, you can lean on me. Most clients describe feeling relaxed, calm, refreshed after our sessions and start to experience life's challenges differently.

As a somatic, brain based therapist I love connecting with you and together deciding on what you'd like to change. I use modalities such as TRE, EMI (similar to EMDR), EFT "tapping", Hypnotherapy, Parts work and more. Most sessions we will check in and then you get to experience a process and leave feeling refreshed and grounded.
