Dr Derine Louw
Clinical Psychologist
“Dr Derine Louw focuses on therapeutic interventions in adolescents and adults, both in-person and online.”
About Me
I am a Clinical Psychologist in Van Riebeeckshof, Western Cape, South Africa. I help young adults and adults navigate life transitions, anxiety, mood disorders, and personality difficulties. I provide psychological and diagnostic assessments to clarify diagnoses and guide practical treatment plans.
Approach
Across clinic appointments in Bellville and secure online sessions, I keep a clear, paced structure that balances practical problem-solving with reflective exploration. I offer sessions in Afrikaans or English, work with diagnostic findings to set realistic, collaborative goals, and use short, focused between-session tasks to test coping strategies and build skills. Sessions tend to feel direct but supportive, alternating gentle challenge with concrete strategies tailored to life changes, anxiety, mood shifts and personality patterns. This way of working suits people seeking clarity and steady progress.
