About Me
This warm, practical psychotherapist and social worker helps individuals navigate complex human challenges. They compassionately unravel issues from physical, emotional, and spiritual perspectives. Through somatic therapy, they guide you to understand how experiences manifest in your body. This integrative approach suits those seeking a holistic path to wellbeing. It offers a gentle space to connect mind and body, fostering deep understanding and lasting change.
Approach
You’ll be invited to notice where feelings live in your body, gently translating sensations into clearer meaning and practical steps. In Johannesburg or online, in English, Hebrew or Portuguese, sessions are steady and paced to your tolerance, with room for quiet tracking and small experiments between meetings. I use focused attention, gentle body-based techniques and reflective dialogue to surface patterns from trauma, grief or chronic illness and to shift how you respond day to day. This way of working often helps those seeking grounded, embodied change that honours spiritual values.
