Completed my Masters in Counselling Psychology at the University of Pretoria and completed my internship at the Student Counselling Unit, University of Pretoria. I am registered as a Counselling Psychologist with the HPCSA (PS 0151688).

Work Experience
I am currently working in private practice and have experience within a variety of clinical settings, including:

• * New Beginningz Baby Haven
• * Blymoedig Psycho-Geriatric Clinic
• * Learskool Generaal Nicolaas Smit
• * Daspoort Secondary School
• * Itsoseng Clinic@Vista (Mamelodi Campus, University of Pretoria)
• * Student Development and Support (Tshwane University of Technology)

I have also worked as a research assistant in the department of psychology, at the University of Pretoria. My work gave me the privilege of engaging with people from diverse backgrounds, including children at risk, trauma survivors, psycho-geriatrics, and the student population.

Interests

I have a deep passion for human relationships and supporting people. I am mindful that the lives we lead may be influenced by the quality of relationships we have with others, and how we engage with our environment. I am devoted to promoting the mental health of others and empowering them to lead meaningful and fulfilling lives.

It is deeply fulfilling for me to witness people thrive and grow personally. I feel privileged to experience and to have the opportunity to provide a safe, holding space for people to share in their joys and achievements but also collaborate with them to explore aspects of themselves and resolve their challenges.

My areas of interest include anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, bereavement/ grief, adjustment difficulties, relationship challenges, trauma, stress, student support and academic skills, and career development and guidance.

Therapeutic Approaches
My approach to therapy is integrative and is based on Person Centred principles. I incorporate various techniques appropriately selected to honour the individual needs of each client. These include Schema Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy.

I am dedicated to providing a space where people can connect with themselves and self-development is possible. I am often inspired by the resilience and resourceful spirit that clients have in their most painful and challenging times. As a psychologist, this is fulfilling to witness but also affirming of my responsibility to believe in my client’s capacity for change.

I offer individual, couple, and group therapy. I also offer a range of psychometric assessments, including scholastic and career assessments.
