Mrs Joyce Hayward, Master's in Clinical Psychology

Clinical Psychologist

I am an experienced clinical psychologist with a special interest in psychoanalytic psychotherapy.

About Me

As an experienced clinical psychologist, I guide you to explore the deeper roots of your struggles. We can gently explore how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape your current feelings and relationships. This approach offers a space to make sense of long-standing challenges, fostering lasting change. Clients seeking profound self-understanding find this work particularly supportive for their journey.

Approach

I use a careful, curious stance rooted in psychoanalytic thinking to help you notice recurring feelings and relational patterns as they surface in the room. Sessions in Randburg or via secure online video are paced to match your tolerance, conducted in English, and balance reflective listening with gentle challenge. We track links between current difficulties—anxiety, mood shifts, impacts of chronic illness or past trauma—and earlier experiences, often noticing small emotional signals between meetings. Those looking for steadier relationships and clearer self-understanding tend to find this steady, exploratory pace helpful.
