About me

I'm a trained English-speaking counsellor, living in South Africa. I hold a Bachelor's Degree, majoring in Psychology and Criminology, as well as two Post-Graduate Degrees in Psychology and Psychological Assessment. Having experienced the toxic dynamic of a narcissistic relationship and narcissistic abuse, as well as leaving it and recuperating from the damages it had caused, I understand the cycle of manipulation, criticism, degradation, and confusion one finds themselves trapped in, and the challenges one faces when leaving and rebuilding their life. I understand that it's not as easy as simply "just leaving", and this is complicated more by others who lack the insight into this cycle. For these reasons, I have chosen to specialize in counselling and supporting those who are currently experiencing, or are in the process of recovering from, narcissistic abuse.
