Social Worker (Mental Health)

“A gentle & caring approach to therapy aimed at building insight & coping strategies in short to medium term work including Brain Working Recursive therapy”

About Me

This gentle and caring approach offers a space to explore your experiences. We work together to build insight and strengthen practical coping strategies for daily life. Therapy focuses on short to medium-term goals. This includes using techniques like Brain Working Recursive therapy. If you seek compassionate, focused support to navigate challenges effectively, this could be a good match.

Approach

Sessions move from attentive listening into focused, manageable steps that help you recognise unhelpful patterns and practise new responses between meetings. In Cape Town or online, in English, I keep a steady, calm pace—balancing safety, curiosity and clear homework that fits your daily life. I use targeted, brief interventions alongside reflective conversation so nervous-system regulation and practical problem-solving happen together, helping shifts land more quickly. This way of working suits people seeking compassionate, efficient support for anxiety, grief or low mood.
