My Experience

I am a U.S.-trained Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master of Science degree earned in California. My clinical experience is rooted in the Newark School District, where I provided individual and group therapy to students and families navigating challenges such as adjustment difficulties, anxiety, depression, self-identity, and more.

In addition to my clinical background, I bring lived experience as an expat. Moving from South Africa to California for my studies, and later immigrating to Amsterdam, has given me firsthand insight into cultural transitions and the complexities of adapting to new social norms
