The Sunflower Collective
The Sunflower Collective
You may be overwhelmed, burnt out, questioning parts of your identity, struggling in relationships, navigating change, or simply feeling stuck. Therapy doesn't always have to begin with a diagnosis or a crisis. Sometimes it starts with wanting to understand yourself better and find a different way forward.
Who I work with
An adolescent, young adult or adult who is functioning in the world, but feels overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected from themselves, or unsure of who they're becoming — and wants therapy that is practical, affirming and human, rather than overly clinical.
I particularly enjoy working with adolescents, young adults and adults navigating identity, neurodivergence, burnout, relationships and major life transitions. My approach is affirming, collaborative and practical — not just talking about what's wrong, but helping you develop insight, skills, and a clearer sense of who you are and where you're going.
"We're going to understand what is happening, identify what you need, and work on something together."
How I work
I work with individuals, couples, families, adolescents and organisations, across all ages — in English or Afrikaans — drawing on CBT, DBT, psychodynamic, humanistic, experiential and creative expressive therapy approaches.
50-minute sessions combining therapy, coaching and wellness support.
Mediation and joint sessions for partners and families of two or more.
WhatsApp Video Call sessions, or in-person on select Thursdays at MyFamilyGP, Sea Point.
Workshops, mentorship and psychosocial programme design for teams and institutions.
About Marchané
Since I was a kid, I've wanted my life to mean something. Like so many of us, that search hasn't always taken the smoothest road — but along the way I found myself, and found what I'm here to do: walk alongside people as they find meaning, hope, and the push to keep going.
I trained in social work at Huguenot College, with hands-on exposure to rehabilitation, child welfare, court work and community support. I went on to train social auxiliary workers, community development workers and lay counsellors — then found myself missing direct client work, and specialised further in substance abuse with an Honours in Clinical Social Work.
Today I work as a social worker at a TransHealth clinic, focusing on gender-affirming healthcare and support, alongside my private practice. In 2026 I completed my Master's in Clinical Social Work at UCT, having been one of nine students selected nationally to begin the programme in 2021.
Outside of work, I'm an introvert who loves time at home, in the garden, and with my cats and the people closest to me.
