Approach

Evidence and curiosity guide my work: sessions move at a measured, collaborative pace where we identify practical steps and test what helps between appointments. In Durban or online, in English, I create a predictable, respectful space that balances reflective listening with targeted skill practice drawn from research into trauma, addiction and grief. I use simple measures and reflective tasks to track progress and adapt plans. People seeking steady, practical change and deeper self-understanding often find this approach useful.
