“Since emigrating from South Africa to New Zealand 15 years ago, I have worked with clients… with a wide range of issues… grief, anxiety, anger, depression, physical and emotional trauma, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, addictions, family violence and sexual harm. I am passionate about the work I do. Through using therapeutic modalities best suited to the client, I aim to help find clarity and to free them from troubling emotions, so they can move forward with their lives, feeling lighter, stronger and with a deeper understanding of who they are and who they would like to be.”
