I’m a Johannesburg based Counselling Psychologist. I’m registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (PS 0141003) and the Board of Health Care Funders (PR 0776343). I run a private practice based in Johannesburg, South Africa, where I see individuals, couples and throuples for sex, gender and relationship therapy. Before qualifying as a Psychologist, I worked as a psychosexual con
sultant for many years in the Southern African NGO sector. During this rewarding time, I was involved in outreach, education, research, and activism with sexual, gender and relationship minorities as well as in a harm reduction programme for people who use and inject drugs. I subsequently obtained my Masters in Community-Based Counselling Psychology from Wits University and completed my practical training at the Emthonjeni Centre and Family Life Centre in Johannesburg where I conducted individual, relationship and family therapy with adults and children. I also worked part-time at a drug rehab centre providing individual, group and family therapy for people who struggle with addiction as well as their loved ones. During my journey I was struck by the need for sex positive, informed and accepting therapists and this is what I aim to be. I believe people should have access to a variety of non-judgemental and informed practitioners. To this end I assist the continued professional development of sexual health practitioners in my role as President of the Southern African Sexual Health Association. To enhance public knowledge and awareness of sexual, gender and relationship diversity I have appeared on TV, radio, podcasts, in print and at events.
