Clinical Psychologist

verified by TherapyRoute

“I am a clinical psychologist and work primarily with individuals from my private practice in Blouberg Sands.”

About Me

In my Blouberg Sands practice, I offer a confidential space for individuals to explore their concerns. We can work together to understand challenges and develop practical strategies for daily life. My approach helps you gain clarity and build resilience. It's a good fit if you are ready to make sense of difficult experiences and create positive change.

Approach

Therapy feels practical and collaborative: we clarify what's happening, set short goals and practise strategies between sessions. I see people in Blouberg Sands and online, offering sessions in English and Afrikaans so you can choose what feels most comfortable. When anxiety, mood shifts, life transitions, past abuse or addictive patterns come up, I blend gentle challenge with real-world skills tailored to your pace. This approach suits people ready to understand their patterns and practise new ways of coping.
