About Me

When life presents overwhelming challenges like relationship shifts, loss, or periods of anxiety and depression, finding support is key. I offer a warm, empathic, and present space where adults and couples can explore these experiences. We can sensitively unpack feelings around breakups, life transitions, or deep sadness. After-hour appointments offer practical flexibility. Clients often appreciate this direct yet gentle approach to finding a way forward.

Approach

I help people move from feeling stuck by breaking big emotions and decisions into manageable, practical steps while holding a steady, compassionate presence. In sessions in Sandton or online in English, we map patterns in relationships, grief or mood shifts, try small experiments between meetings, and use reflective feedback to clarify what's most important right now. My pace is collaborative and measured—gentle questioning, clear boundaries, and pragmatic options so choices feel less overwhelming. This way of working often suits adults and couples seeking steady, sensible support.
