My roots are in South Africa, but my twenties were a masterclass in moving. I landed in Canada as a young adult, gained my citizenship, and eventually traded stability for a long stretch of travel through the U.S. and South America. That winding road led my husband and me to Ecuador, where we currently serve with ACTION International. I carry a piece of South Africa wherever I go and love our life here in Ecuador, but my deepest anchor is knowing my real home is in heaven.

My twenties were defined by a season of personal healing, growth, and working out my salvation. While I am still very much being refined daily, I am deeply thankful to God for the tangible freedom and healing He gave me. That personal redemption and restoration is what drives my work today. I am passionate about the Gospel and dedicated to helping others find that same lasting peace, freedom, and hope.

When I am not in session, you will find me outdoors, whether in the city or in nature, planning a road trip, researching for hours, or embracing new adventures. I appreciate simple, grounded living, taking delight in my pet bunnies (Bamboo and Bop), and being still.

My approach to therapy mirrors how I live my life: rooted in truth, ready for the hard stuff, and deeply committed to walking alongside you until you find solid ground.
