About Me

As an experienced clinical psychologist, I offer a person-centred space for you to explore your unique experiences. I help individuals understand complex patterns, often using neuropsychological assessments for clearer insights. This tailored approach ensures our work focuses on what matters most to you. Clients seeking clarity and practical support for their challenges find our collaborative sessions deeply beneficial.

Approach

Working eclectically, I combine structured assessment with responsive, collaborative therapy to map out patterns and practical steps forward. In my Pinetown office and via secure online sessions, I offer care in English, isiXhosa or isiZulu to fit your needs. Sessions move between focused assessment, skill-building and reflective conversation, with clear feedback and short practical tasks between meetings when helpful. This way of working tends to suit people seeking clarity and practical support through life transitions, grief or complex mood and anxiety difficulties.
