About Me
I am a counselling psychologist located in Pretoria East. I have a strong interest in psychotherapy and a passion for people. I enjoy working with a variety of populations and different developmental stages, backgrounds and disorders. I believe that all people deserve to live a life filled with meaning and happiness. Therefore, I enjoy engaging in a therapeutic relationship with each client to facilitate a healing process.
My Approach
I believe that it is important to look at each person from a holistic perspective, taking into consideration both their internal worlds as well as their external environment. I, therefore favour a cognitive behaviour (CBT) approach as well as a general systems approach to psychotherapy. I also consider it important to respect each person’s uniqueness and autonomy and thus therapy is personalised according to each person’s needs and goals.
