I have been working therapeutically for nearly a decade within clinics, hospitals and the private sector. Having qualified as an Occupational Therapist at the University of Cape Town, I have undertaken further training over the course of my career to enrich my clinical work including training in Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Enhanced Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Interpersonal Neurobiology, a Foundation Course in Dance Movement Psychotherapy and Positive Psychology and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). Over the years my passion for working with women has evolved, and just prior to becoming a mother myself, I stumbled across the theory of Matrescence (a word used to describe the transition and evolution of a woman becoming a mother). I have since undertaken additional training in perinatal mental health, matrescence and motherhood sociology to better support mother’s through postpartum and beyond.

I strive to create a safe, caring and containing space. My warm, empathetic nature has helped me in supporting individuals to explore their distress and challenges so as to alleviate this and feel a deep sense of agency, purpose and contentment in their lives.
