I am a registered Clinical Psychologist and I am passionate about my work. I am inspired by diversity and the strength of the human psyche. Every day brings new people into my life that enriches me as a person and therapist. The relationship I have with my patient is of great importance to me. My aim is to help the individuals find a sense of self amongst the disarray of their symptoms. The self so easily gets misrepresented by symptoms and the true person does not have a voice. I want help you to find your voice! Let me join you in your process.

I am a registered social worker with a passion to leave people better than I found them. I work from the person-centred approach and place a high value on your innate ability to change and grow. Just because we cannot see a mental health problem, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Mental health should carry the exact same weight as a broken leg; you wouldn't walk around on a broken leg, don't walk around with untreated mental health problems; reach out for help! "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change" C. R. Rogers

People come to therapy for different reasons. Many people come because of difficulties they are currently experiencing, which can include long periods of distressing feelings or thoughts, struggling to cope, relationship problems, and/ or difficulty dealing with a particularly distressing situation. Other people come to therapy simply to gain a better understanding of themselves and more fulfilment in their lives and relationships. Therapy is a unique experience and a relationship between you and a professional. It is very normal to not fully understand its nature at the outset.

Psychological distress often presents quietly. It might be persistent anxiety, a low mood, relational strain, trauma, or a gradual sense of disconnection from yourself and your direction. At pivotal moments, thoughtful and skilled therapeutic support can create the space for clarity, recalibration, and deeply meaningful change. I maintain a practice model that ensures therapeutic depth, attentiveness, and genuine engagement in the therapeutic process. You can expect to be met with warmth, discernment, and respect - your inner world approached with care and thoughtful curiosity. A journey of discovery and understanding together.

I am an HPCSA-registered clinical psychologist working with adults, adolescents, and couples across a broad range of emotional, behavioural, and psychological difficulties. My work is grounded primarily in a psychoanalytic framework, with additional application of cognitive behavioural and existential approaches where clinically appropriate. I aim to understand each person’s patterns of experience and relational dynamics in depth, while also drawing on structured, evidence-based interventions to address present challenges. This allows for a considered and responsive way of assisting with meaningful change.
