As an HPCSA- registered Drama Therapist I facilitate a non-judgmental and confidential space where equal attention is given to the body, heart, mind and soul. Arts processes such as images and stories give shape and form to things that are difficult to talk about or to discover new insight in old patterns. Our work is about looking at all the parts that make up the Self, both the healthy ones and the hurting ones. By making space and engaging with these parts we get to better understand ourselves and connect with who we truly are. Arts activities are invited sensitively and when it feels appropriate – no awkward role-plays!

It is often hard for us to acknowledge when our usual way of coping no longer feels enough. Someone once said; ‘Asking for help is not a sign of weakness, it is wisdom’ (author unknown). As a registered counsellor I can journey with you to explore your current life challenges. I am passionate, dedicated and committed to the process of healing that the counselling space can offer. My approach is warm, non-judgmental and person-centred. I will offer you emotional support alongside psycho-education about mental wellbeing, whatever your circumstances or stage of life.

On a personal note, I am a married 44-year-old mother to a 10-year-old son. Why do I tell you this? Because I believe it is important for you to know that I have not only academic but also broad life experience. I have worked through much emotional and physical trauma in my life thus far, so I am able to understand the depths of feelings my clients present. I counsel both individuals and couples.

I am here to facilitate and support my clients while they engage in untangling their inner and outer worlds. In an increasingly fast-paced, superficial, disconnected society, I offer a safe, non-judgemental space for clients to deal with issues such as parenting, marriage/divorce, loss & grief, addiction, co-dependancy, inner child, managing high pressure, self-criticisms, self esteem, psychospiritual growth and more.

All of us have at least one thing in our lives that we wish we could overcome or conquer. As a registered wellness counsellor, my goal is to help clients navigate their way to climbing and conquering the mountain that they face. We often feel alone and like nobody understands us and what we are going through, but my aim is to offer you a space to be heard, to be vulnerable and to encourage you to take the first step toward having autonomy over your own life.

I'm a clinical psychologist and I love what I do. I provide therapy to adolescents and adults using an integrative approach. I draw on different modalities like person-centred therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), Brain Working Recursive Therapy (BWRT - Level 1), Mindfulness, Resource Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, and Trauma and Tension Release Excercizes (TRE).

Life can be difficult, for parents and children alike. Parents often struggle with their own anxieties, and it can so easily spill over to our children. Children also experience high levels of anxiety. Parents and children can be taught valuable techniques and life skills to better navigate the pressures of life.

Taking the first step in your mental health is a brave venture. Finding the right therapist for this process is important. Therapeutic relationships should provide you with a sense of safety to explore the most vulnerable parts of you. In the words of Brené Brown "Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light."
