Addiction Therapists in Cape Town City
I am a Specialist Wellness Counsellor that journeys with individuals, couples and families though depression; anxiety; loss and grief; addiction; adjustment struggles; conflict; disease management; trauma; abuse; victim empowerment and many others
Life is tough, sometimes very tough. Us, as human beings often forget to take care of the most basic of our needs in favor of immediate responsibilities and often put off the things that fuel us - when our fuel runs out, we are left with the wreckage and very little motivation to pick up those pieces. The healing journey offers a space to recuperate and learn to know and love ourselves again and to remember that sometimes its okay to not be okay. I journey with those who come see me, and noting is more beautiful and rewarding for to see someone transform their lives into something they have always wanted.

My ideal client feels overwhelmed, stuck, or quietly worn down from carrying too much for too long. They may look “fine” on the outside while struggling inside with trauma, grief, anxiety, or life changes. They don’t need to be in crisis — they just know something needs to shift. They’re longing for clarity, steadiness, and support that feels safe. They want practical tools, compassionate guidance, and space to heal at their own pace — without pressure, judgment, or having to explain everything perfectly. They’re ready to grow, gently, and to rebuild confidence, resilience, and a deeper sense of self-trust.

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.

You don't have to keep pretending you're okay when you're carrying emotional pain, unresolved trauma, anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, or the weight of overwhelming life experiences. Healing doesn't begin when you have all the answers,it begins when you feel safe enough to be seen, heard, and understood.

The foundation of my therapeutic approach is rooted in mindfulness and a deep understanding of how the nervous system responds to overwhelming or traumatic experiences.

Chronic anxiety and depression often leave us feeling disconnected, stuck in survival mode, and lacking purpose. What sets my approach apart is its foundation in trauma-informed modalities, compassion-based practices, and high-performance psychology, offering you a holistic and comprehensive path to mental health and well-being.
