Most of my clients arrive for therapy at a time when they are experiencing a “crises in meaning”, “crises in ego” or "crises in relationship". This, I believe, is a "call to action" - regardless of whether the struggle is to do with a relationship, depression or anxiety.

Ballito 4420
Human Sexuality is the source of both immense joy, pleasure & life expression, and of desperate pain, tragedy and confusion– the yin and yang of life. It is an integral part of who we are as humans; it effects and is effected by all parts of life. My aim is to provide a safe space to allow for honest education, empowerment and self directed healing.

Life can throw curveballs in our path from time to time, and these transitional periods can cause stress, anxiety, depression, and isolate us from our friends and families. Going through significant events such as exams, starting at university, thinking about getting married, getting divorced, changing jobs, or even moving house or country can bring up all sorts of emotions and struggles. At the end of the day, we all want to be able to navigate all of life's challenges with the least stress possible, feeling grounded and supported and ready to face the day.

Maybe you are struggling in your close relationships? Or perhaps you just need a listening ear and a space to vent. Whatever your situation is, you are not alone.

Do you yearn to teleport yourself into life that feels safer, more peaceful and whole? Are cracks in your road of life appearing and the journey forward feels uncertain? Do you have inner discomfort, turmoil, perhaps even suffering? Or you just have this awareness of wanting to shift something. You are not alone as I share ALL of this experience. I have been both deeply humbled and enlightened to ‘remember’ that safety, peace and wholeness IS MY – OUR – NATURAL state of being. Cracks in the road appear when we have disconnected from our natural state, our truth. The way the light of this truth shines through is to crack us open.

As an Occupational Therapist I believe mental health is supported by full participation in daily life or occupations. The way we participate in life is impacted by performance skills such as cognition, emotional regulation and communication. Being diagnosed with a mental health condition may mean one experiences a combination of cognitive, emotional or behavioural difficulties that impact relationships personally, professionally and socially. It might make it harder to participate in occupations or activities that you want and need to do to live life to the fullest.

Wellness is our greatest tool in preventing illness. It is our greatest asset to achieving happiness. So why is wellness not something we all strive for on a daily basis? And I don't mean to be well in the sense that we are free from disease- I mean to be free, healthy and happy in all aspects of our lives: be it social, occupational, physical, spiritual, emotional and psychological. My role will be to assist you in your wellness journey by assessing areas that may need improvement, while always remembering what you are doing right. I also hope to be a sounding board on days that you may need clarity or when it all feels too much.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
