Apart from my counselling training at Rhodes University and the South African College of Applied psychology, I have been trained in mindfulness, meditation, qigong and hypnotherapy, facilitating deeper self-awareness and mind-body harmony. Whether you simply need someone to talk to - to better explore and unpack your current situation or past circumstances - or whether you are actively wanting to engage in changing certain thought, emotional and behavioural patterns that may be limiting you in your life, my approach can be of great value to you.
My role as a counsellor is to help my clients to see themselves more clearly. When we take a step back and observe ourselves - our thinking, our emotions, our everyday behaviours - we put ourselves in a position of power. We become self-aware, which gives us the option of choosing different responses to life.
The story that we tell ourselves about our lives and ourselves has a great impact on how we feel and what we give ourselves permission to do in life. I am assured that my compassionate, client-centered approach will offer you a safe space to unpack, reflect upon and possibly even write a new healthier narrative in your mind.
