About Me
I guide adults facing challenges like addictions, trauma, ADHD, or autistic spectrum disorders. As a psychiatrist, I also understand the unique impact of chronic pain on well-being. We can explore your concerns together, aiming to develop clear strategies. My broad interests mean I appreciate how different issues often connect, offering a comprehensive perspective. This integrated approach is particularly helpful for those with complex or co-occurring conditions.
Approach
Starting from the clinical interests noted earlier, I work by blending careful assessment with practical, paced interventions so we can map how different difficulties interact in your life. In my Cape Town consulting room we speak in English, set clear session goals, and use a mix of focused talking, skill-building between visits, and targeted therapeutic techniques when safe and helpful. Sessions tend to feel structured yet collaborative, with attention to pain, mood and attention patterns. This way of working often suits adults facing overlapping or persistent problems who want clear, manageable steps forward.
