About me

Distress in life can bring about: confusion, pain, self-blame, anger, self-blame, isolation, loneliness, negative coping mechanism and many other symptoms. It is important to know that anyone of us can experience mental distress and there are several reasons why this may happen, including: trauma, difficult life events, early life experiences and biological basis. My job is to people make sense of their concerns, and find balance during these difficult times so that they can get to their optimum level of functioning again.

The way I approach therapy aims to increase understanding of difficulties that one maybe experiencing on a daily basis. This is with the underlying aim of facilitating observation of blind spots, and increasing awareness of root causes in order to enable lasting change.

No matter how difficult your problem may feel, there is no harm in giving talking about it a try. The worst that can happen is you gain insight into your situation, which in its right may start to alleviate your concerns.
