Ms Allengary Naicker

Clinical Psychologist

“A skilled therapist with diverse work experience, including EMDR, for adolescents and adults, for depression, anxiety and trauma”

About Me

I support adolescents and adults navigating the complexities of depression, anxiety, and trauma. Drawing on diverse experience, I offer a grounded space where we can explore your challenges together. Using approaches like EMDR, I guide you towards understanding and managing difficult feelings. My aim is to help you build resilience and rediscover a sense of stability. This approach suits those seeking practical tools and a calm, supportive presence.

Approach

Sessions move between gentle inquiry and focused interventions, paced to your readiness and shaped by what you bring each week. In my Cape Town practice I work in English, keeping sessions practical and leaving room for pause; between appointments I share small practices and observations so shifts can be noticed outside the room. We attend to feelings in the body, clarity in your story, and gradually test new ways of coping, with steady pacing that respects safety. This suits those wanting hands-on support for anxiety, mood shifts or past hurts.
