“Intervention with families living with addiction. You will experince compassionate treatment and focused relapse prevention”

About Me

Navigating family life with addiction can feel overwhelming. This practice offers compassionate support, understanding the unique struggles each family member faces. Sessions gently guide you towards healthier patterns, creating a space where all emotions are met with care. Through focused relapse prevention, families gain practical strategies to build stability and resilience. You can find clear ways to support recovery and strengthen relationships, moving forward with renewed hope.

Approach

I pace care to your family's rhythm, meeting urgent safety needs while building steady relapse prevention plans. In Cape Town I offer sessions in English or Afrikaans and online, creating focused 50–60 minute meetings where partners and parents can speak, reflect and rehearse new responses. Assessments and collaborative between-session tasks map triggers, link behaviours to relationships, and keep relapse signals visible. This approach suits adults, couples and families ready for clear, practical steps toward safer cycles and stronger connections.
