Originally from South Africa, I call New Zealand home. I live in Marlborough with my husband and three children. I am an internationally certified therapist specialising in intimacy and Relationship counselling.
I’m incredibly passionate about helping families stay together and helping individuals find connections to themselves in a gentle trusting manner.
In my practice as a therapist, I strive to create an open-minded environment where you can explore your sexuality, dating, and relationship concerns in a safe, non-judgmental place, where you feel empowered.
I believe in meeting people where they are at, which means taking advantage of your strengths and uniqueness as a human being. To build the life and relationships you desire. I believe all identities, expressions, and lifestyles are valid and valued, I value pleasure as well as authenticity in my work.
By working with me, we can increase your awareness of the sensations in the body as clues to your emotions, needs, and boundaries at the moment. Together we can explore issues and gain tools to significantly improve your quality of life.
I incorporate a mixture of modalities best suited to you as my client.
You can choose to see me from home through a Telehealth platform, I give you a link and you can access me through your phone, computer, or iPad Or if you prefer to see me face to face you can see me at my office in central Blenheim.
