Working Towards Change with A Counselling Psychologist.
Your Well-Being Is in Good Hands
Are you struggling with issues related to trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, or major life changes? There comes a time when help is needed from a certified professional to cope with many of life’s challenges. I’m a licensed Psychologist in the greater Parys area, and I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery.
May you have the courage to begin breaking patterns in your life that no longer serve you.
Give yourself permission to pause and reflect today.
And remember, taking care of yourself doesn't mean "me first;" it means "me too."
A Bit About Therapy
Personalized Attention for All Your Needs
I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among clients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the patient and caretaker alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.
About Me
I studied communication studies and psychology at the North-West University from 2001 to 2007. After my Masters degree and internship, I also worked at the NWU for 11 years. At the university I worked with students on a emotional and therapeutic level, and also did career- and study-related counselling.
​
I am registered as a Counselling Psychologist with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and is currently in private practice in Parys, Freestate.
I am also a mom, wife and business owner.

I truly care for my clients, and work diligently to help them heal, grow and make changes where needed. I have worked with a variety of clients dealing with circumstances that are unique to their lives.

Frequently Asked Questions
You Ask - I Answer
Do you accept payments through medical aids?
I do claim from medical aids on a client's request. It is helpful if you check with your medical aid before the session, whether you have benefits for psychological services. If the claim gets rejected, the client will be held responsible for payment of the fee.
What are your rates?
I adhere to the guidelines set by the NHRPL and Medical Aid Rates & Tariffs of South Africa. Prices for different services vary, and will be discussed with the client when the appointment is requested.
How long does each therapy session take?
Therapy / Counselling sessions are 60 minutes. When assessments are done, time-frame is discussed with the client when the appointment is made.
