Therapists in Bloemfontein

Stuck in a constant anxious loop, bombarded with your own negative thoughts - I can't do this, I am not good enough. Self-esteem issues having you constantly apologizing to others and not taking up the space you deserve. Feelings of depression and dread making it difficult to experience life. Struggling to lose the stubborn weight because how can I give up the only thing that brings me a little comfort. You want to live life feeling capable, confident, enough, adequate, worthy - this is your birth right. You haven't lost it; it's buried under negative beliefs. Transform yourself to free - you know you deserve it!

I do individual psychotherapy sessions as well as couples therapy. I work on an outpatient as well as inpatient basis. I treat patients who suffer from depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress, OCD, Bi-polar mood disorder, suicide ideation etc.

On our life's journey we sometimes feel stuck, anxious, overwhelmed or just that our journey is not going the way we have imagined it. You may feel that something is holding you back, relationships are a struggle or you feel divided in yourself. As a psychologist I offer therapy to anyone who feel they need some help and support to understand themselves and others better and develop frameworks and coping skills to negotiate the rhythms of life. Be it at work, with relationships, family and child raising matters or just developing and finding yourself. My clients include adults, adolescents and children from the age of 10 up.

My practice focuses on individual adult therapy. As resilient as we are as individuals, sometimes our psychological, social and emotions difficulties become really overwhelming and it becomes difficult to cope. During those times, one can develop mental health challenges, that impact on one’s day to day functioning. When that happens, for a time in our lives, we may need professional assistance in our healing and recovery journeys to better psychological health. This can be daunting or scary, but a brave choice to make.

Life is full of ups and downs. In the end it is the journey that matters most and that teaches us the most. Psychotherapy offer an individual the opportunity to collaborate with a therapist to overcome any obstacles that are hindering their progress or growth. The process of therapy addresses emotional, relational, cognitive and occupational concerns. I collaborate with the client and personalise an approach most beneficial to the client. To me psychotherapy is a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space in which to explore and better understand yourself, your relationships, and the challenges or difficulties that you face.

Life can be hard. We experience a whole array of emotions while balancing work, personal life, and relationships. At times it feels like the things happening in our life are overwhelming us, which leads to emotions like anxiety and depression. The thought of therapy can be intimidating, but it is a rewarding process of self-discovery and understanding yourself better to deal with the challenges of life.

I am a firm believer of the fact that every single person has a life story worthy of being heard. Some stories might seem messy, chaotic and unfinished. Others might seem intriguing, exciting and “figured out”. Point is, everyone has their own story.

I am looking forward in hearing your life story and creating a space where you feel safe enough to be vulnerable and open to share.

Choosing the best career path for you can be quite a difficult decision to make. Normally there are three aspects of career counselling to consider. The first, during the second half of grade 9 is to choose the best subjects for grades 10 to 12. The next aspect, somewhere during grades 11 and 12, is when you have to consider possible career options for after school. The last aspect has to do with the possibility of considering a career change during adulthood. Each and everyone of these aspects are generally not an easy process. For young people the study options after school and the world of work can be a daunting issue.

As we move through life, we are often faced with many challenges and sometimes even moments that turn our lives upside down. Traumatic events and distressing experiences often leave us feeling lost, defeated and unsure. Everyone deals with these situations in their own way. At times, we are able to manage and cope rather well however, some challenges and tragedies can start to feel overwhelming and hard to cope with on our own. I know what it’s like to be caught in turbulent times. That is why I put my heart and soul into helping individuals make sense of these moments, put their life back together and find contentment and purpose.
