I am a registered Counselling Psychologist, trained at the University of the Witwatersrand, and currently based in private practice in Ballito and Durdoc Hospital. I work with adolescents (12+) and adults, offering a supportive space for individuals navigating a wide range of life challenges. As a counselling psychologist, I offer a compassionate and warm environment where adolescents and adults can freely explore their thoughts, emotions, and challenges without fear of judgment.
I have a special interest in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship conflict, and adjustment to life transitions. I also offer focused support in areas such as reproductive health, illness adjustment, parental and caregiver support and HIV-related emotional support.
I understand that taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming. It’s normal to feel uncertain or unsure, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Therapy is not about having all the answers—it's about creating a space where you can feel safe enough to explore, heal and grow at your own pace.
