      I work in English and Afrikaans with a focus on the expatriate and international community in Leuven.

      I assist individual clients with adjustment related difficulties, mood related symptoms such a anxiety or depression, and sexuality.

      Within the context of couples and intimate partner relationships, I support partners in navigating challenges, improving communication, and deepening emotional and physical intimacy. When separation or divorce becomes necessary, I guide couples through this process in a respectful and amicable way, with a strong focus on the wellbeing of any children involved.

      Within the family context I have extensive experience working with stepfamilies (blended families) and understand the unique dynamics they face. I also have a special interest in perinatal mental health, particularly within the expatriate context, where new parents often lack the support networks they need. I offer compassionate guidance to parents who are at risk of, or recovering from, parental burnout.

      As a Sexologist I can assist with sexual pain (e.g. vaginismus), difficulties around arousal e.g. erectile function, issues with desire, sexual inexperience and lack of confidence/insecurity and relationship difficulties.

      I have been providing clinical supervision, practice mentorship and business coaching to other psychologists, counsellors and allied healthcare workers for many years and have expanded this passion into becoming an approved internship site supervisor for the Masters in Counselling Psychology internship programme of Yorkville University in Canada, as well as the Masters in Clinical Psychology from both the Université Louvain la Neuve and the Vrije Universiteit Brussel in Belgium. I am proud of the work that our interns are doing and how we can collaborate in making psychotherapy a little more accessible to the public.

      I am a registered Clinical Psychologist in both South Africa and Belgium, as well as an European Certified Psycho-Sexologist.
