Despina

Dr Despina Learmonth

Chartered Psychologist

I believe in holistic wellbeing: empowering you to improve your overall quality of life. Head to heart, solutions for survival and growth.

About Me

I help you bridge the gap from "head to heart," fostering holistic wellbeing. My approach supports you in developing practical solutions for immediate survival and sustainable growth. If you are seeking to improve your overall quality of life, we can work together. We will explore ways to navigate challenges and build lasting resilience.

Approach

Moving from thinking into felt meaning, I help you notice patterns and experiment with small, practical shifts that ease anxiety and repair connection. Sessions in Cape Town or online, in English or Afrikaans, feel paced and collaborative — we set clear steps, reflect on what worked between meetings, and adjust as needed. I use gentle challenge, practical tools and relational focus so insight turns into everyday change. This way often suits adolescents, adults and couples seeking steady, usable progress rather than quick fixes.
