Ms Anel Annandale

Educational Psychologist

“As an Educational Psychologist my services include global assessments, career guidance assessments, neuropsychological assessments and parent guidance. I also consult online where possible.”

About Me

I am an Educational Psychologist based in Pinelands, Western Cape, South Africa. I provide art therapy, intellectual and neuropsychological assessments, diagnostic testing, and adoption and career planning support for ADHD, autism and learning difficulties. I give clear reports and practical recommendations for families and schools.

Approach

Assessment and practical planning shape how I work—quiet, focused sessions that balance structured testing with creative expression. I meet with children, adolescents and parents in Pinelands or remotely, offering sessions in English and Afrikaans that feel paced, collaborative and gently goal-oriented. Sessions often weave short art-based activities with clear feedback, brief home or school strategies between meetings, and concise written summaries to support next steps. This approach suits families and schools seeking clear, manageable pathways forward.
