I am a bilingual registered counsellor, offering both individual and group counselling for children, adolescents and adults in Paarl/online. My experience includes working with children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other learning difficulties. My approach is integrative, which means that I draw from various approaches and interventions and tailor them in a way that best suits each individual. I offer a safe and non-judgemental space which allows for clients to freely express their thoughts, opinions, feelings and experiences.
I specialise in the areas of trauma, abuse, grief, stress, anxiety, autism spectrum disorder, learning difficulties, career counselling, personal & emotional development (including self-esteem) and daily-life obstacles.
My role as a counsellor is to enhance and promote the psychosocial wellbeing of my clients and assist them in identifying stressors and challenges in their lives. My aim is to help individuals overcome difficulties by drawing from personal strengths, guiding them to create positive thought patterns and developing useful coping mechanisms.
