I have lived all of my life in Johannesburg South Africa. As a very sensitive child, I felt immensely vulnerable to criticism and rejection, longing for approval from others and the sense that I would be ‘good enough’ when I was very successful. It was an exceedingly painful and depressing time for me and an equally pointless search.
Discovering my passion, clinical psychology, being able to listen to people in a way that I was never listened to and to help them to heal was the start of my own healing.
