I consider myself a person-centred therapist, meaning that I believe that all individuals have unlimited potential that can be identified and developed. I am also a pragmatic person who seeks, along with clients, solutions for personal problems and develop tailored tools to deal with emotional problems and scholastic challenges.
I have a special interest in helping people deal with trauma. I truly believe that the possibility exists for a beautiful life after the experience of emotional trauma. I utilize brain-based therapies to manage negative experiences and adapt healthy thought processes. I am specifically trained and make use of Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Brainwork Recursive Therapy (BWRT) and Brain spotting. I also have further training in utilizing EMDR and BWRT in children.
I was a senior lecturer at NWU (Potchefstroom campus) and a contract lecturer at UP, where I lectured and supervised undergraduate and postgraduate students in research, counselling and therapy. I have a special interest in psycho-educational assessments to determine potential challenges that children, adolescents and adults face in academic contexts (for example, ADHD, ASD, Specific Learning Disorders etc) and how to address it most effectively. My PhD, furthermore, (broadly) focussed on how motivation influences academic achievement. I believe that each child has unique strengths that can be mobilized to help them flourish in their own way.
