About Me
I help children, adolescents, and their parents navigate the unique emotional and developmental challenges of growing up. My approach focuses on understanding each child's world. I support them to voice feelings and develop practical strategies for home and school. Parents find my guidance helpful in fostering stronger connections and supporting their child's well-being. I aim to create a supportive space for the whole family to thrive.
Approach
To help families move forward I focus on clear, steady steps that feel manageable for each child and their caregivers. In my Centurion consulting room, in English or Afrikaans, sessions are a mix of playful exploration, focused conversation and practical skill-building; between appointments we prioritise simple home or school strategies that strengthen what we work on together. Assessments inform the next steps rather than label, and parents are invited as active partners. This way of working suits families seeking calm, practical progress.
