My ideal client is a middle aged man, challenged by relationship difficulties with a partner. Experienced challenges have led to him doubting himself, his ego is challenged and he describes himself as having anger issues. He received this kind of feedback before from previous girlfriends and it has thus become a self-fulfilling prophecy. He is stressed and anxious about his life, current and future. His specific needs include discovering his soul purpose, achieving his self worth and feeling more grounded. In addition, he needs assistance with strategies for both anger management and dealing with anxiety.

I am a person-centered therapist with a versatile approach to an array of difficulties experienced by both young and older people. I endeavour to empower my clients, to reach self-fulfillment.

I work with a range of different clients irrespective of gender and race ... especially in the diversity of South African. My primary aim is to provide a respectful and safe therapeutic space which can emotionally support the client and the issues that have brought them to therapy - be they personal (depression, anxiety, general stress/health, a sense of emptiness, loss, and/or a need for introspection) or more relational in nature (home, work, romantic, studying). I believe that most concerns can be addressed, worked through or processed, if one is open to doing the work and is willing to grow.

Clients come to my office with many different issues, but they all have one thing in common: They want to be heard, they want to heal, and they want to grow.

Sometimes in life, we may face challenges that make it difficult to function on a day to day. These challenges can be physical, emotional, relational, or psychological. During this time, we may need professional assistance to support us during our healing journey and help us build skills and coping mechanisms. My psychotherapy approach is holistic, and I work collaboratively with the client to help them overcome challenges they may face and build skills to aid them in future. I primarily work from the psychodynamic modality; however, I may utilise knowledge, techniques as well as skills from other modalities where indicated.
