About Me

I am a licensed counsellor in Chroompark, Limpopo, South Africa. I help you address abuse, addiction, anxiety, ADHD, and conduct issues. I use ACT, climate grief support, coaching and conflict management to create clear coping plans.

Approach

Helping you clarify goals and move through trauma means I blend steady structure with gentle pacing, tracking small shifts each week so progress feels tangible. Sessions in Mokopane, Limpopo or online — in Afrikaans or English — are practical and conversational: we set tiny experiments, name patterns, and build simple tools you can use between meetings. I coach you to tolerate difficult feelings while choosing actions that matter, offering advocacy where systems get in the way. This way of working often suits people ready for clear steps and honest reflection.
