Mrs Heleen Meyer, MA

Clinical Psychologist

verified by TherapyRoute

I work with all couples and adults within a psychoanalytic and psychodynamic framework.

About Me

I work with adults and couples to explore long-standing patterns and feelings. My aim is to offer a space where you can understand how past experiences shape present challenges. This approach is well-suited for those seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships. Together, we can make sense of underlying difficulties, fostering lasting personal growth and stronger connections.

Approach

Working from psychodynamic and psychoanalytic ideas, I guide sessions at a measured pace so we can gently uncover links between early experiences and current difficulties. In my Cape Town consulting room or online, in Afrikaans or English, sessions balance reflective dialogue with focused interventions when anxiety, trauma or relationship ruptures demand it; you’ll often leave with a practical way to test new responses between meetings. This approach suits adults and couples seeking thoughtful, sustained change rather than quick fixes.
