I am a Counselling Psychologist registered with the HPCSA. In my own therapeutic journey, I’ve come to recognise the anxiety that arises when we reveal aspects of ourselves that still feel unfamiliar or uncomfortable. Yet, I’ve also discovered that healing truly begins when we feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. I believe in the power of storytelling as a path to healing and self-discovery.

Children receive Play therapy - this is a safe way to express their own challenges and emotions.
In the more than 30 years of working with people from all walks of life, I know that we all have a need to live a life of meaning and purpose. Our day to day journey is seldom without challenges – emotionally, socially, and spiritually. Each of these challenges have a lesser, or more severe impact on the quality of our life - on the way we feel about ourselves, regarding our relationship with others and our spiritual growth. Although we do not always want to admit it, we all are wounded in some way. I do believe that the best gift you can give yourself in life, is to strive and work towards becoming the person you are meant to

If you often feel overwhelmed, stuck or disconnected, feel like you're carrying the weight of stress, trauma, or emotional exhaustion, you’re in the right place. You may function well outwardly but feel anxious, burnt out, or numb inside. You're seeking more than just talk therapy. You want to feel safe in your body, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with yourself. We can do this by breaking old patterns, building self-trust, and living with more ease, authenticity, and inner peace.

I work with clients across the lifespan, including children, teenagers, university students, & adults supporting them through life transitions, identity exploration, and challenges related to spirituality, relationships, and personal growth.
As a qualified Counselling Psychologist, I believe therapy to be a space where healing meets possibility - a place where the parts of your story that are often left in the footnotes are brought to the center, seen, and honored. I aim to create a space that is culturally attuned, socially conscious, and responsive - where every aspect of your identity is recognized and valued. For me, therapy is about exploring your inner world and the social contexts that shape your experiences, gaining clarity, insight, and moving toward growth, resilience, and wholeness.

Child Counsellors

Do I need to attend therapy with my child?

Parents are an integral part of a child’s therapy, but the specifics of their involvement vary. If your child is young, you may attend most or all sessions; if your child is older, you may attend a few sessions or none; sometimes a therapist may ask you to have a session on your own. Whatever the arrangement, you should expect to work collaboratively with the therapist, your child, and your family members to take steps to help support your child.

How long are sessions with child therapists?

Children’s therapy sessions can last 30 minutes, 45 minutes, or 60 minutes. The length of the session may depend on your child’s age and the type of therapy practiced. You can discuss this with therapists you consult and the one you ultimately move forward with.

How do I get a child to agree to seek therapy?

The best approach is to have an open-ended conversation with your child about how they’re doing and what they might be struggling with. When you raise therapy, discuss the concept in an age-appropriate way, for example explaining that a therapist’s job is to help kids handle their hard or uncomfortable feelings. Frame therapy positively, as an opportunity to explore and build emotional skills—it’s an important tool in the toolbox to help kids feel their best.

How can I tell if a therapist is a good fit for my child?

A child needs to feel comfortable opening up about their thoughts and feelings, so if your child feels a sense of comfort, ease, and trust with their therapist, that’s a great sign. In addition, a therapist is a good fit for your child if the two can communicate well together; a clinician should be able to communicate clearly, effectively, and in an age-appropriate manner.
