Services offered
I am a registered Industrial and Organizational Psychologist, with a strong foundation in psychological theory, practical experience in organizational development, and a passion for enhancing employee wellbeing and performance. I am a SAQA qualified trainer, where I was not only the trainer, but also developed course content. I have experience in carrying out Employment Satisfaction Initiatives, and am a qualified Psychometrist.
I recently completed my Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Diploma through the University of Stellenbosch and in collaboration with Institute for Mindfulness South Africa (IMISA), with a solid foundation in mindfulness practice, formal training in MBSR facilitation, and a commitment to guiding individuals toward greater well-being.
My background in Industrial and Organizational Psychology has deepened my understanding of the impact that chronic stress and emotionaldysregulation.have on individuals, and I bring both compassion and evidence-based mindfulness practices to support participants on their journeys. My approach is grounded in presence, non-judgment, and creating a safe space for self-inquiry.
