Ms Carla Lippi-Gimmel

Clinical Psychologist

“Registered Clinical Psychologist in private practice in Faerie Glen, Pretoria.”

About Me

I am a Clinical Psychologist based in Faerie Glen, Gauteng, South Africa. I work with anxiety, mood disorders, relationship issues and suicidal thoughts. I offer psych and diagnostic assessments, including adoption evaluations.

Approach

Clients can expect a careful blend of assessment and conversation that uncovers patterns and makes room for feeling safe to explore. I see adults in Faerie Glen or online in English, and sessions move at a steady, reflective pace—sometimes focusing on history and meaning, sometimes on concrete coping steps—and I share observations that connect past experiences with present difficulties. Between meetings we may use brief tasks or reflections to track change. This approach suits people seeking thoughtful, collaborative work on anxiety, mood and relationship stresses.
