So excited to launch this new initiative with Our Village

Support for busy parents to prevent important tasks being left behind. Children can also be screened to receive additional evidence based one-on-one study support.

Supporting children through school can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when homework, tests, and assignments begin to build up.

Our study support classes for Grade 4–7 learners are designed to provide structured, guided support in a calm and focused environment. We assist with homework, develop effective study methods, and help learners prepare for exams, tasks, and oral presentations.

Classes are kept small, with 4–5 learners per tutor, allowing for more individual attention and a better understanding of each child’s needs. Each session is one hour long.

1 class per week – R600 p/m
2 classes per week – R1200 p/m
3 classes per week – R1600 p/m
4 classes per week – R1800 p/m

If you would like more information or to secure a space, we welcome you to get in touch.

A few essentials added to the practice this week ✨

I’m constantly adding, improving and growing my practice space in small ways to keep it fresh, relevant and welcoming.

Progress over perfection. Always.

Counselling teens can be challenging. Expectations are high. Social media is everywhere and anxiety is almost guaranteed.
But one day they come in and something clicked. Somehow, somewhere they realised “I am enough” and “I deserve to be in healthy relationships” - and that moment cannot be replaced by anything in this world.

Cause humour is important too. The pink, the plants, the tea, the lists, the stick-its are on point 👌🏼
Thanks ChatGPT😉

Happy Friday. I hope you get a moment to be quiet and reflect on the week that was and prepare for the week to come. 🌸

The first instalment of my Grade 4 prep workshop went só well this past weekend.
I am opening up more availability and one-on-one sessions with you and your child. This workshop can be done at anytime throughout the year as the workload gets bigger and the overwhelm more.

We are only 26 days into 2026 and I have already seen my fair share of absurd things. Unfortunately, this includes the fast amount of misinformation that is out there when it comes to Mental Health Professional in South Africa.

Educate. Educate. Educate.

✨ Do it for your future self ✨

As counsellors we often talk about the safe space we have to create for our clients. In order to have emotional safety we need physical safety and that starts in a room. In this room. With its pink chairs, lego, children’s books and plants.

This space facilitates growth, difficult conversations, dreams, reflection, safety and stability. An investment in your future self.
This is my space and I cannot wait to welcome you - in person or online.

Hello 2026 and Welcome back ✨

A gentle reminder as the year begins:
You don’t have to sprint into January. Pause. Ground. Set intentions that feel supportive, not overwhelming.
Slow beginnings often lead to the most sustainable growth.

Graad 4 is ’n groot stap.
Nuwe verwagtinge, meer werk en groter onafhanklikheid kan vir kinders (en ouers!) oorweldigend voel.

Hierdie Werkswinkel kan jou kinders help om met meer selfvertroue die nuwe jaar aan te pak, terwyl ouers praktiese riglyne ontvang om hul kinders tuis te ondersteun.

✨ ’n Proaktiewe en ondersteunende benadering om jou kind vir sukses voor te berei.
