Registered Counselor

“An experienced, passionate Registered Counsellor working predominantly with adults, couples, and groups.”

About Me

I am an experienced and passionate Registered Counsellor, offering a supportive space for adults, couples, and groups. I aim to help you gain clarity and find constructive ways forward. My approach is warm and collaborative, ensuring you feel heard and understood. We can work together to navigate life's complexities, fostering resilience and growth. I provide a calm environment where you can freely share your thoughts and feelings.

Approach

Passion shapes a steady, practical way of working where we attend to what feels most urgent while building safety and clarity. In Pretoria I offer appointments in English and isiZulu and I’m available online, so sessions are calm, focused and adaptable to your life. We use gentle pacing, grounding techniques and clear, actionable steps—sometimes exploring past hurts, other times mapping small changes you can practice between meetings. This approach suits adults, couples and parents seeking compassionate, goal‑oriented support through loss, stress or relationship strain.
