About Me
I offer online therapy, including online EMDR for adults based in South Africa. I mostly provide support for difficulties related to work and relationship stress, anxiety and trauma. The focus is on shifting out of unhelpful patterns and realigning with empowered wellbeing. For the treatment of depression and anxiety disorders, I primarily make use of a skills based approach called Metacognitive Therapy (MCT). I am a certified EMDR practitioner, a helpful approach for the processing of trauma. I also draw from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic approaches, depending on the specific needs of the client.
Approach
Each session is collaborative with a specific focus on holding struggle with compassion and on gaining new insights that can lead to constructive changes and an alleviation of distress. Sometimes people work with me to build up emotional regulation skills, enhance self understanding, develop new ways to communicate and gain new perspectives on their relationships. If you'd like to discuss setting up an appointment, you're welcome to email me.
