I work with individuals (18 years and older) and couples who are experiencing everyday challenges and those with more serious psychological diffciculties, such as:
Life changes
Relationship difficulties
Divorce, infidelities, etc. Loss and bereavement
Uncontrolled anger outbursts
Compulsive behaviours (gambling, etc.) Traumas, such as hijacking, r**e, unexpected losses, witnessing violence, termination of pregnancy
Consultations and Fees:
Typically, a first consultation would take the form of an assessment of your needs. An estimation of the length of time and the program to be followed will be discussed with you. Follow-up consultations usually take place on a weekly basis. Consultations last at least 60 minutes. Where appropriate, this will be extended in consultation with the client. I am contracted in and charge medical aid rates.
