"The Tuesday Talks convert the uncommon skills and insights of the psychologist into common knowledge".
I have been interested in people and their interactive dynamics my entire life. It has been a privilege to accompany a multitude of people on their quest to understand themselves and the people in their lives, and see them conduct their lives and relationships more successfully as a result of that insight.
A complex system of predictable patterns of thinking and behaviour emerge from the many therapy sessions, common to most people from most cultures. This system provides a road map for understanding others, and I have no greater pleasure than sharing this with others and receiving their stories in return.
You can compare the therapeutic process to taking a trip in a helicopter, looking at the landscape of your own or a loved one's lived experience. You get a good overview. The journey of insight does not always have to take place in a psychologist’s office. My clients do most of their growing and changing out there in their everyday lives and their consultations with me provide a space to slow down and examine any aspect of their life.
And now we have the free Tuesday Talks, where you can learn something new about...
your relationship with yourself
interactions with the important people in your life
constructive communication
social skills
relationship tips
mental hygiene
best parenting practices
dealing with ADD/ADHD
resolving sexual difficulties
building a life-long relationship
I have run a psychology practice in Linden, Johannesburg for many years. I initially worked alone but was soon joined by like- minded psychologists and a great office manager. They are still carrying on their good work up there (Click here to see them). We have now opened a second practice in Gordons Bay in the Cape, as the charming town offers the opportunity to engage in a more intimate and close community, a place where each individual’s contribution can be felt, a place where it matters that you are doing your best.
The owners of Le Bay Restaurant and Guest House have agreed to reserve a space for us every Tuesday evening from 5pm to 8pm. The venue has a charming atmosphere, lending itself to interesting discussions and connecting with good people. Driving dirctions: From Gordons Bay Drive, turn right into Sir Lowry's pass road, towards the sea. Le Bay will be on your right.
Let’s get together over a cup of coffee or a glass of wine at Le Bay on Tuesdays. Everyone is welcome. No need to book, you can just arrive.
Join us and ask whatever questions puzzle you, or simply listen and takenew thoughts home. There is no fee for the evening, just order somerefreshments to make it worth the gallery owners’ while to host us.
I am looking forward to meeting you . See you there!
