​I am a registered Counselling Psychologist with over 16 years of clinical experience, offering compassionate therapy grounded in a psychodynamic framework. My practice focuses on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their inner worlds, fostering healing through trust, cultural awareness, and deep reflection on life’s challenges.
​
My career spans diverse clinical environments, including Helen Joseph Hospital, where I addressed complex psychological needs in the Themba Lethu HIV Clinic, Renal Unit, Oncology Ward, and Trauma & Accident Unit. Here, I supported individuals navigating life-threatening illnesses, chronic pain, somatic disorders, and trauma recovery. Beyond hospital settings, I have dedicated significant time to trauma-informed advocacy, collaborating with the Centre for the Study of Violence and Reconciliation to provide therapy for refugees, survivors of war, and LGBTQI+ individuals, with a focus on systemic oppression and identity-related challenges. My approach integrates gender-affirming healthcare practices, ensuring compassionate support for transgender and gender-diverse clients navigating systemic barriers.
​
In addition to hospital-based and advocacy work, I run a general practice treating a variety of mental health conditions such as mood and anxiety disorders, including depression, self-harm, and suicidal ideation. I am particularly passionate about early childhood development, offering play-based therapy for children under five and guidance for parents navigating infant-related challenges.
​
A cornerstone of my work is intersectional, culturally responsive therapy, deeply informed by socio-political contexts, intergenerational influences, and cultural humility. I believe in honouring each client’s unique narrative, weaving personal and collective stories into a path toward resilience and growth.
