Eunice Marais

About

Having a specific interest in children and victims of sexual abuse, her practice focuses on the assessment of children, care- and contact evaluations, as well as forensic investigations into allegations of abuse.

Eunice also believes in empowering children with proper, age-appropriate sex education and awareness with the aim of doing away with the stigma and shame associated with sex which often leads to, amongst others, teenage pregnancy, child sexual abuse and the underreporting of sexual abuse and assault.

Additionally, her interest in understanding people in high conflict situations, especially couples involved in high conflict divorce matters, inspired her to further her training in mediation. Through mediation, she assists families to find alternative, amicable, and constructive ways to resolve conflict before approaching the court. Eunice firmly believes that mediation can be a more cost-effective, empowering, and constructive way to deal with conflict and disagreements.
