Services

Individual Psychotherapy

I offer brief and long-term psychodynamic therapy for children, adolescents, and adults. This is an insight-based approach that aims to develop a capacity to be self-reflective and have a better understanding of the reason(s) for one's problems and translate the insight into an ability to cope with current and future difficulties. To enable this process, I offer a secure and consistent environment to permit the safe expression of painful or shameful feelings, fantasies, impulses, and memories. 

In addition, more structured CBT and DBT methods may be adopted if it is the most effective approach for any given difficulties.

Group Therapy

I facilitate different kinds of groups from psychodynamic or dialectical behavioural approaches for adults and adolescents for varying purposes. The purpose of group work is to equip individuals with active coping skills or to help them gain insight to help them grow emotionally and solve personal problems in a supportive space. Unlike the two-person relationship between client and therapist in individual therapy, group therapy offers multiple relationships to assist the individual in growth and problem-solving.

Parent Counselling

Parent counselling draws from different therapy modalities and is a suitable intervention for helping parents better understand their inherent parenting style and the subsequent dynamics that may occur. This is a collaborative process that requires the rehearsal of different skills and strategies between sessions. The basis of parent counselling is to help empower parents and support them through challenges that may arise in their families.

Parent Counselling

Parent counselling is a collaborative process aimed at helping parents understand their own parenting style, the dynamics at play in their family, and the difficulties their children may be experiencing. It draws on different therapeutic modalities depending on what's most useful, and often involves trying out skills and strategies between sessions.

Supervision

I offer clinical supervision to psychology trainees and early-career clinicians, with a psychodynamic foundation and openness to other modalities where clinically appropriate.

Workshops and Institutional Work 

I offer psychoeducational workshops and mental wellbeing consultation for schools, organisations, and corporate clients. These are tailored to the particular needs of the group and can cover topics including stress and burnout, emotional regulation, adolescent mental health, and the dynamics of workplace wellbeing.

Fees

My fees align with medical aid rates; depending on your particular plan, you should be able to claim most of the cost back. Generally, you are expected to pay at the consultation or at the end of the month, whichever arrangement is agreed to. For current fees, please don't hesitate to contact me.
