About Me

I offer a supportive space for adults, couples, and children to explore their experiences. I guide individuals and couples through their unique challenges, and for children, I use play therapy to help them voice feelings. My multi-lingual proficiency in IsiXhosa, English, IsiZulu, Afrikaans, and SeSotho ensures you can express yourself fully. This allows for deep connection and understanding, helping you find clarity and a way forward.

Approach

Experience guides how I structure sessions: we move from careful listening and targeted assessment to hands-on strategies that match your pace and background. In Cape Town or online I work in Afrikaans, English, Sesotho, seTswana, isiXhosa and isiZulu, adjusting language and rhythm so you feel understood. Sessions often weave brief assessments, reflective tasks and practical relationship or stress-management practices, with small experiments between meetings to track change. This approach tends to suit individuals, couples and families looking for collaborative, clear steps forward.
