About Me

My practice is built on the belief that support is most effective when it feels natural. I guide individuals and families through life's challenges, often in the comfort of their own home. Drawing on my experience in disaster management, I help you navigate difficult transitions or overwhelming events. This accessible approach provides a safe, familiar space. We can explore feelings and develop practical coping skills together, fostering stability where you feel most at ease.

Approach

Bringing therapy into your space shapes how I structure sessions. From my base in Pretoria I offer in-person and online meetings in English, Sesotho, Xitsonga and Tshivenda so we can work where you feel steadier. Sessions move at your pace: focused check-ins, gentle exploration of trauma, grief or family strains, practical skill-building and clear safety planning between meetings when needed. People juggling crisis, parenting pressures or major life shifts often find this steady, home-centered rhythm helpful.
