My journey to become a clinical psychologist was motivated by my sincerest belief that every person has the ability to make a change. To me, becoming a psychologist was not about ‘fixing’ people or giving advice, it was about helping people to find their own drive and direction to make changes in their lives. It does not matter if a person is struggling with a life crisis or has a mental illness, all can empower themselves to find meaning and in turn live life with fulfilment.

My academic journey led me to graduate with a Masters degree (with distinction) from the University of Johannesburg, having completed my undergraduate degree and honours degree through the University of South Africa. My master’s thesis focused on the Clients Experience of Equine Assisted Psychotherapy. This topic was developed from my passion and own healing experience in working with horses. During this time I also received a Post Graduate Certificate in Education and work experience as an educator. In addition I am a registered Babies in Mind practitioner and I am certified with EAGALA for my work with Equine Assisted Psychotherapy. I regularly attend workshops and courses in order to grow as a person and psychologist
