About

Founder & Chief Executive Officer of MINDSHIFTERS Coaching, Counselling, Mediation and Wellness (Pty) Ltd. I am a NABFAM-accredited Mediator (SJA), Mental Health Counsellor registered with CCSA, ASCHP, ACRP, and CPSC, and an HR/Labour Relations practitioner with over two decades of professional experience. My work spans family and divorce mediation, including Voice of the Child interviews and parenting plans, workplace and labour mediation, conflict resolution, mental health support through coaching, counselling, and play-based interventions, as well as organisational consulting. I work with individuals, couples, families, and organisations to resolve conflict with dignity, clarity, and fairness. My approach combines professionalism, empathy, sound process, and a strong commitment to ethical, client-centred outcomes, with a special focus on the wellbeing of the child in family/divorce matters.

Approach

My mediation approach is structured, impartial, and solution-focused. I create a safe and respectful space where parties can be heard, clarify the real issues, and work toward practical, sustainable agreements. In family matters, I aim to support child-centred and relationship-preserving outcomes wherever possible. In workplace and commercial matters, I focus on fair process, constructive dialogue, and workable resolutions that reduce ongoing conflict and restore trust. My practice is grounded in professionalism, compassion, ethical conduct, and a commitment to lasting change.
