Ms Kersha Singh

Occupational Therapist Registered

“Occupational therapist with special interest in mental health and psychiatry.”

About Me

Living with mental health challenges can make everyday tasks feel overwhelming. As an occupational therapist, I support individuals in finding practical ways to manage their well-being. We collaborate to explore how mental health impacts your routines, helping you re-engage with meaningful activities. Our sessions equip you with personalised strategies, from structuring your day to building coping skills. This approach is ideal for anyone seeking tangible steps to improve their daily functioning and quality of life.

Approach

I take a practical, step-by-step approach that helps turn goals into realistic, manageable actions. Based in Cape Town, I offer online sessions in English that are tailored to your pace and everyday circumstances. Together, we'll explore challenges, find workable solutions, and develop plans that feel achievable. Between sessions, you may try small changes to routines, self-care practices, or coping strategies, and we'll reflect on what worked and what didn't. The aim is to build skills that gradually become part of daily life.
