About Me

With 25 years of experience as a clinical psychologist, I offer a space for deep personal exploration. My psychodynamic approach helps individuals uncover how past experiences influence present challenges. We work together to understand underlying patterns, fostering a journey of self-discovery. This process is ideal for those seeking clarity and resilience. Together, we can make sense of your life and find a way forward.

Approach

I guide sessions as a careful unfolding of thoughts and feelings, attending to patterns that quietly shape current struggles and choices. From my Cape Town consulting room and via English online sessions, I keep a steady, predictable pace so you can notice shifts without feeling overwhelmed. Together we link mood, anxiety and relationship themes to everyday behaviour, using reflective listening, thoughtful interpretations and occasional assessments to bring hidden dynamics into focus. People seeking clearer self-understanding and practical emotional steadiness often find this way of working helpful.
