Hello. Id like to warmly invite you to book a session with me. You may have gone through trauma or are in addiction or just be seeking relief from stress- looking for actual tools to live well. I use many different brain based, somatic modalities (think "mind body") to help you achieve your goals. I have 20 yrs of counselling experience and 40 odd yrs of life experience. Bring your dog, favourite blanket or cuppa so you're comfortable whilst we relax in the beauty of the Deep South of Cape Town, or from your own home! Medical aid savings can be accessed, not PMB.

Therapy provides a safe and supportive space in which to understand and find ways of understanding and overcoming these challenges. Our lives are unique, and as such the focus of therapy I provide is aligned to your particular needs, whether it is to manage a crisis within yourself, or to better understand and function in relationships with others. I work with teenagers age 15 and up, and adults.

The thought of starting therapy can be a scaring one. We often wonder about suitability and ask ourselves will the therapist and I get along, will he understand me, or will he judge me? All these are relevant and real questions that are born when looking for a therapist to connect with. I strongly believe that the relationship between a therapist and client is a very vulnerable and sacred kind of relationship, where the two travel together to explore and access vulnerable parts of the client.

We all have habitual ways of responding to what happens in our lives. These patterns were often shaped by our experiences; both more recent events and those we experienced in childhood. We learn to survive. At times our old ways of coping become less functional as our lives and circumstances change and it becomes necessary pause and re-evaluate. Often this is a point where someone feels very stuck or overwhelmed and they need the support of a therapist. Let me help you connect, grow and heal.

Adults struggling to come to terms with childhood trauma, bereavement, divorce, domestic violence and trauma, all of which can negatively affect functioning in daily life. Depression & anxiety often follow trauma.
