About me

My passion for mental health stems from a deep commitment to guiding and empowering others. Originally from South Africa and now living in the Netherlands, I bring a unique cultural perspective and firsthand understanding of the challenges internationals face, such as homesickness and loneliness.

With an MSc in Clinical Psychology and certifications as a Life Coach from two globally recognized organizations, I'm here to support you exactly where you are; tailoring care to your individual needs.

I am committed to social justice and advocate for women, POC, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community.

I speak:

English

Location:

Rotterdam, Netherlands

Approach

Treatment Approaches
CBT: Cognitive behavioural therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
MindfulnessMindfulness is the process of maintaining a purposeful moment-by-moment awareness of our thoughts, feelings, and surrounding environment.
Person-centred approachRecommended for those looking for a supportive, non-judgmental space where they can lead the conversation and explore their feelings at their own pace.
Positive psychotherapyRecommended for those who want to focus on building strengths, increasing happiness, and enhancing their overall well-being, rather than just focusing on problems.

Diversity forms the foundation of my approach. I am a culturally competent individual; committed to ongoing learning and continuous effort to ensure that people of all backgrounds feel safe and valued within my care. This includes providing person-centered therapy — aligning with one’s culture, values, and preferences.
