About Me

I am an Addiction Counselor in Kirstenhof, Western Cape, South Africa. I assess substance and behavioral addictions and carry out psychological and diagnostic assessments. I arrange referrals to specialist treatment and aftercare for you.

Approach

Based in Kirstenhof and working with clients across Cape Town and online, I focus on practical, step-by-step recovery work that moves assessment into everyday change. Sessions shift between focused check-ins and longer exploratory conversations, blending coaching, family involvement and clear monitoring so progress becomes tangible. Between meetings I agree realistic, measurable tasks, keep communication direct in English or Afrikaans, and coordinate specialist referrals when needed. This steady, collaborative approach tends to help adults and families who want structured, accountable support through recovery.
