My story

My fascination with working closely with individuals led me to initially pursue a career in occupational therapy, with special interest in supporting adults in overcoming barriers and returning to work after injury or illness. Through this experience, I developed a deep understanding of health, disability, and the dynamic relationship between individuals and their environment. Working as an occupational therapist in both South Africa and the United Kingdom, I established a successful private practice in Cape Town in 2017.

Throughout my career, I consistently sought ways to optimise function and enhance the alignment between individuals' abilities, their work, and their environment. As a therapist in the field of rehabilitation management, my role primarily involved advising and guiding clients. However, I gradually became more intrigued by the innate wisdom that resides within each individual and the untapped potential waiting to be unlocked. I desired a collaborative approach that would empower people to connect with themselves on a deeper level and bring about meaningful change. This led me to transition into the role of a coach.

In my personal life, I faced loss and significant life changes that necessitated radical shifts in my way of operating in the world. It became evident that old approaches were no longer serving me, and I found myself in a state of confusion and uncertainty—a common experience in transitional periods. Adaptation and resilience became crucial aspects of my journey.

Having experienced profound changes in my own life, I bring a unique perspective to my coaching sessions. I understand firsthand that finding the way forward often takes time and requires introspection. My aim is to create a safe and trusting space for my clients—a moment of pause that allows them to reflect, gain clarity, and navigate their path with confidence.
