Bereavement & Grief Therapists in the Western Cape

I believe that people have the inner wherewithal to heal themselves, but often get stuck at various junctures of their lives. They know that something is wrong, but seem unable to move forward. My role as psychologist is to facilitate the emergence of a deeper understanding so that people can move towards greater wholeness and self-acceptance. View profile & contact details

Life’s setbacks and crises can be transformed into rich opportunities for growth when a skilled clinical psychologist facilitates your journey to greater self-insight and wholeness.

I’m a Counselling Psychologist, though trained in Clinical Psychology, I chose to register in Counselling which I feel both suits my personality best and is truthful to my underlying worldview. I prefer to work with people struggling with every day challenges, rather than severe pathology. This also underscores my approach to life: facing challenges and a strong belief in people’s ability to heal and grow as individuals. After all life does not change – we do.

Grief covers a variety of experiences. In this world we are so often taught to ignore how we feel and carry on. Judith Viorst explains it so accurately. "When we think of loss, we think of loss through death of people we love. But loss is a far more encompassing theme in our life. For we lose not only through death, but also by leaving and being left, by changing and letting go and moving on. And our losses include not only our separations and departures from those we love but our...losses of romantic dreams, impossible expectations, illusions of freedom and power, illusions of safety - and the loss of our own younger self".

Counselling can be a rich self-resourcing option for people who wish to explore and vitalise their life process and relationships, find a more satisfying "fit" in the world, or kindle greater warmth and kindness towards themselves. I work with a variety of concerns, and I value an approach that invites forward-living possibilities and makes generous room for nurturing compassion for oneself in present difficulties.
