Mrs Chrisna van der Walt

Registered Clinical Psychologists

“Registered clinical psychologist in Parys offering psychotherapy to adolescents, adults and couples.”

About Me

I offer psychotherapy in Parys, creating a grounded space where adolescents, adults, and couples can openly explore their experiences. Together, we navigate emotions, understand challenges, and foster personal growth. My aim is to help you gain clarity and strengthen relationships. Clients find my collaborative approach provides practical ways to build resilience and move forward.

Approach

Based in Parys, my sessions move with practical clarity, balancing empathy with structured inquiry so you can make sense of what feels overwhelming. I work in Afrikaans and English, offer in-person and remote appointments, and keep the space calm and focused so we can track patterns between meetings and try small, manageable experiments. Sessions blend gentle challenge with clear explanations about anxiety, mood and trauma responses, helping you practise new ways of coping. This approach suits people who want steady, hands-on support to regain confidence and balance.
