About Me

I provide a compassionate space to help you unpack trauma and navigate life's stressors. My experience supports you in understanding past hurts or current difficulties. Online sessions make therapy accessible, offering support wherever you are. This flexible approach is ideal for anyone seeking a dedicated guide through their healing journey.

Approach

Together we map what feels most urgent, then work at a pace that honours safety while slowly making sense of painful memories and current stresses. In Plettenberg Bay or online, in English or Afrikaans, sessions alternate focused talk, creative play for younger children and practical planning for daily strains, often with short tasks between meetings to try new patterns. I listen for patterns, name them simply and invite small experiments so change feels achievable. This approach tends to suit people seeking steady, practical support through transitions, loss or trauma.
