Heal your past, embrace your present, shape your future.
Hi there, and welcome to my site.
Let's cut to the chase. I specialize in depression, anxiety, relationships and career, because these are the elements of mental health that I understand.
Depression and anxiety are what I know because it's what I lived, navigated and healed from. Part of my journey includes substance abuse and some other challenges too. In our first session, I take some time to share my story as a framework around which I explain why it is that I do what I do, because I am a product of the process that I facilitate.
I know that the hurts and traumas in life happens in the context of relationship, and so does healing, that's why I meet you halfway in that vulnerability, by being a human first. Rest assured, it is the most that I will ever speak about myself!
Relationships: My failed relationships, and my marriage along with my journey in becoming a dad and better husband has helped me build on my theoretical training with some real-world experience. My wife is also a clinical psychologist, and we've been able to come to some insights and wisdoms that we are excited to share and work with in a premarital context as well as for those going through hardship.
Then, work-life: Having been raised in a business owner family with all the challenges and triumphs that come with that afforded me some insights and lessons that I bring to this space. These insights serve the burnt out, the lost, the struggling entrepreneurs and change seekers out there. I worked in many industries and built, failed and succeeded at some of my own ventures too. I have walked the talk so to speak. I know that mental health, fulfillment and success go hand in hand, and in my practice we strive towards that ideal.
I started my journey towards becoming a psychotherapist at the age of 16 through my own process in a modality called SHIP therapy. I'll tell you all about that in our first session too. It was my dad who led the way, needing to deal from his traumas so that he could keep his business, and his family. I followed, and my therapy journey literally changed, and saved my life. I then went on to study and finished my Msc in Clinical Psychology at 30, I had some detours, which I am grateful for.
That's me, in very short. If you need help in any of these domains, feel free to send me a WhatsApp, and we'll take it from there. Oh, and one more thing. The first session is free if we don't book a follow up. It's more important to me that you find the right person to walk this life changing journey with, than to charge for a single session. So you truly have nothing to lose.

How SHIP® Therapy Helps You Reclaim Your Life
SHIP® therapy works with your nervous system, not just your thoughts.
It helps your body release the emotional blocks that keep you stuck in patterns like:
- overthinking
- shutting down
- people‑pleasing
- withdrawing
- exploding under pressure
- feeling disconnected from yourself or others
When those blocks clear, something powerful happens:
- You feel more grounded.
- Your reactions soften.
- Your relationships become safer and more connected.
- Your work performance stabilizes.
- You stop living in survival mode and start living with choice.
This is the transformation we are after: The ability to choose how you show up at home, at work, and inside yourself.
