I work with adults, adolescents & couples.
You do not have to wait until you are in crisis before you reach out to a counsellor. One thing in life that is certain is change and facing challenges. Just navigating normal life transitions can be stressful and overwhelming. We are made to be in relationship with one another and when you are going through a difficulty there can be such power and healing in being able to express to someone in confidence what you are experiencing on a physical, emotional, mental and social level. We all need that space where we feel safe, we are able to share in confidence and there is no judgment.

No doubt you are looking at this site because you want something in your life to change. You want to feel better, get out of a repetitive rut, make some relationship changes or improvements, or just feel better within your own skin. My clients find it a huge relief to share and process their concerns - within the safe space of my counselling room or via secure online therapy. I believe strongly in a gentle therapy method - a non-judgemental and compassionate attitude - creating a safe, nurturing space for healing and change to begin. I am very aware of how vulnerable one feels in making that first appointment. It is worth it!

When working with couples, I draw great inspiration from the Gottman method for couples.
As a counsellor, I believe we can flourish when we view adversity through a growth lens. I believe that by using DBT coaching techniques, we can all overcome the challenges in our lives. I enjoy supporting couples by helping them improve their communication, reframing conflict with strategies and tools to allow for connection, and focusing on repairing well when a rupture has taken place.

Registered Counsellor, BSocSci Hons, HPCSA - Counsellor
Hout Bay 7806
Life can be brutal: the past haunts, interferes with the present and imperils the future. Counseling is a place to pause, reflect, and begin again. I believe there are no “bad” parts to people. Even the painful or overwhelming parts are trying, in their own way, to protect you. In counseling, we make space for all these parts to be seen and understood, while reconnecting with your deeper Self, that steady presence at the centre of it all. Therapy is not about reducing you to your struggles but about discovering new and practical ways to live more fully.

I have experience with teens, individuals, and couples.
Change happens when we feel safe enough to set down the weight of expectations and look honestly at the parts of our lives that no longer fit. I work with individuals who are navigating the heavy terrain of grief, the exhaustion of burnout, or the complex layers of trauma and identity. In our sessions, I offer a grounded, collaborative space where curiosity replaces criticism. Whether we are untangling relationship patterns or navigating a life transition, my focus is on helping you find a sense of internal clarity and steadiness. Through our work, we'll move towards deeper self-understanding and values-driven actions.

As a therapist, I aim to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you feel understood. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, burnout, trauma, addiction or simply need someone to talk to, therapy can help. Together, we can take meaningful steps toward healing and recovery. I use an integrative approach, drawing primarily from CBT modality, which focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and psychodynamic therapy, which explores unconscious patterns and past experiences. I also incorporate other approaches tailored to your unique needs, helping you feel empowered and in control of your life.

I'm a strengths-based clinician. Because of life's challenges, we sometimes neglect our personal strengths and focus on our deficits or weaknesses, resulting in a life devoid of meaning and purpose. In therapy, I collaborate with my clients to identify their unique strengths and challenge them to utilize these attributes both in their intra and interpersonal relationships. Our signature strengths can shift our thinking and behaviour from a mental health state of languish to a state of flourish and wellness.

Hi! I'm Jamie! I believe that when we practice compassion, we can support the people around us. This means that, within the counselling space I will approach you with openness and understanding. This will allow for the exploration of your personal experiences and the creation of a non-judgmental environment, filled with acceptance and empathy. In this space you will always be acknowledged, and recognize that you deserve to be seen, heard and cared for within a safe space. I work from a systems approach- wherein various counseling techniques are utilized (specifically, the person-centered technique). I am also trained in ABA.
