Psychiatrist

“I am a psychiatrist, a specialist Medical doctor trained in Psychiatry. I firmly believe that a holistic approach towards treatment which is based on evidence based medication integrated with a therapeutic approach holds the key to recovery and health. Let us walk the road to mental and physical well-being together.”

About Me

As a psychiatrist, I offer a holistic approach to mental and physical well-being. I thoughtfully integrate evidence-based medication with a supportive therapeutic process. We will explore how these elements work together, guiding you towards lasting recovery and health. This comprehensive method is ideal for those seeking balanced care. It addresses all aspects of your well-being, fostering resilience for the road ahead.

Approach

We'll focus on clear, achievable goals that let medication and therapy reinforce one another so change becomes practical and lasting. In Cape Town and online, sessions are steady and structured with focused check-ins, symptom tracking and short pieces of psychoeducation to guide what happens between meetings. Work moves at your pace through collaborative problem-solving for behaviour patterns, skill-building for personal development, and careful medication reviews when they support progress. This approach suits adolescents and adults seeking clear, sustainable change.
