Getting Started

Getting Started

After deciding to begin psychotherapy and selecting your preferred therapist, the next step is scheduling your initial therapy session. You’re welcome to book an appointment with me either through email or by calling the number provided on this website. Please leave a message if the phone goes to voicemail—I don’t answer while I’m actively engaged in a therapy session.

In our first session, we’ll explore your reasons for seeking therapy and how I may best support your healing journey. I offer sessions in English and Afrikaans and tailor each treatment plan to your individual needs, with a focus on personal growth. Therapy takes place in a private setting, with online sessions also available after initial in-person meetings.

Individual sessions last 50 minutes. The number and frequency of sessions depend on your needs at any given time. Initially, therapy focuses on finding relief from the immediate issue or symptom. Some clients improve quickly, while others continue longer-term. Therapy can evolve into deeper transformation, but continuing is always your choice—guided by your goals, comfort and personal readiness.
