I am a HPCSA registered Educational Psychologist with ten years of experience in the education sector. As a practitioner, I am passionate about helping young people and their families achieve their mental health and educational goals.
I am a strong advocate for providing holistic support through multidisciplinary partnerships with experienced professionals in the industry, such as occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, psychiatrists and developmental paediatricians. Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of settings, including schools for children with physical and neurological disabilities, in the public sector, and abroad. My experience has provided me with a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by individuals and families in these settings.
I firmly believe that seeking out mental health services is the first step towards achieving optimal functioning, and I am here to help you reach your goals. Whether your child is struggling with ADHD, poor scholastic performance or test anxiety, I am committed to providing personalised, evidence-based support to help your child overcome their challenges and achieve their full potential.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or if you're ready to schedule an appointment. I look forward to working with you.

A psycho-educational assessment is a type of evaluation that looks at an individual's cognitive and academic abilities, as well as their emotional and behavioural functioning. This assessment can help identify barriers to learning and development that may be impacting an individual's academic performance and overall well-being. The assessment includes standardised tests and interviews with the individual, parents, and teachers to get a complete picture of their abilities and challenges. The results of the assessment can be used to develop a personalised plan to support the individual's needs and help them achieve their goals, such as applying for assessment accommodations. Accommodations like extra time in exams, separate venues, readers, and scribes can help level the playing field for individuals with barriers to learning and development. The assessment report therefore provides evidence of the individual's needs and recommendations for the accommodations that would be most helpful. As an Educational Psychologist, I can help you navigate this process and ensure that your child receives the support they need to succeed.
