Family Play Therapy
Using play to help children heal and restore families I have worked with all walks of people – in South Africa and abroad.

I am a qualified social worker as well as a qualified teacher with years of experience. I have worked in the fields of child protection and foster care, children in conflict with the law, mental health and education. It is my passion to see families restored and healed. I believe that people are resilient, and that trauma can be overcome with a lot of love. I use Gestalt Play Therapy to meet the child on his or her level to help them overcome their struggles. I am blessed with a loving husband and two very busy boys. My kids are a joy in my life. We love playing outside and going cycling. However, I do not always feel like I have all the answers and often feel that I should be doing better as a parent and wife. Becoming a mother has humbled me and kept me on my knees before the Father. My kids are such a blessing but I also realise the huge responsibility I have to raise them well. I know that I won't be able to shelter them from all the difficulties in life, but hopefully I can help them to be resilient to overcome the challenges they will face in life.
