“I am a Mental Health Counsellor - outgoing, flamboyant, and caring are some of my attributes. I’m passionate about people, their development, education and training, life coaching, encouragement, life enrichment and motivation.”
About Me
I am a Specialist Wellness Counsellor and Life Coach based in Still Bay, Western Cape, offering primarily online support. I work with individuals facing relationship challenges, stress, burnout, behavioural patterns, identity concerns, and personal development needs. I offer counselling, coaching, group work, and a free initial consultation.
Approach
My approach is holistic and person-centred, drawing from Cognitive Behavioural life coaching, Emotionally Focused life coaching, and coaching techniques. I aim to create a supportive, reflective space where clients feel genuinely seen and heard. I like to approach therapy differently—subtly, yet professionally—meeting each person where they are, and gently guiding them toward healthier thought patterns, emotional insight, and deeper self-awareness for meaningful, lasting change.
