He is especially passionate about neurodevelopmental conditions. In his practice, JP deals with mood and anxiety-related difficulties, utilising his experience in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). His approach is holistic, considering all aspects of a person’s life, and he is skilled in a variety of assessments to guide his interventions.

He completed his undergraduate degree in Health Sciences at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in 2011 and continued there to earn a Bachelor of Arts with Honours and a Master of Arts in Research Psychology.
Outside work, JP values time with his family. On the weekends, he enjoys road cycling, mountain biking, and scuba diving. He also has a keen interest in philosophy, particularly the study of consciousness.
