Thoughtful, individual care

My approach

I believe in working ethically and professionally, without losing the human touch.

I set aside one hour for your first consultation. This allows enough time for you to speak, for me to listen and for us to develop a treatment plan that is acceptable for you. This might involve routine diagnostics, medication, and referrals to other members of the mental health multi-professional team.

Follow-ups are scheduled during which we assess what worked well, what needs more attention and adjust the treatment plan if necessary. Should you have been referred by a fellow colleague, you will receive a short report—this ensures that everyone is on the same page.

  3. 03 Review

    Thoughtful follow-up and adjustment.

Experience across disciplines

What and where I trained

International medical training, grounded in years of clinical experience in Namibia.

I completed my basic medical degree at the Philipps University in Marburg, Germany. The international exposure allowed me to enjoy state-of-the-art training and mentorship for seven years.

After graduating, I completed a two-year internship at Windhoek Central Hospital and Katutura State Hospital. Subsequently, I worked as a general practitioner in Windhoek and Otjiwarongo for approximately eight years.

To specialise in psychiatry, I returned to Germany and completed my specialist training at the Psychiatric Centre Nordbaden in Wiesloch. The five-year course included a year in Neurology, since a number of psychiatric and neurological diseases overlap.

In addition to the standard registrar training programme, I completed a three-year course in cognitive behavioural therapy.

Claim & payment information

I claim from most medical aid funds.

For a first consultation, a co-payment is charged; follow-ups do not require a co-payment.

PSEMAS members are asked to settle their account and claim back from the fund of their own volition.
