Dr Diana Monama

Clinical Psychologist

“I am a clinical psychologist offering psychotherapy for adolescents, adults, couples and families with a variety of emotional challenges.”

About Me

Facing emotional challenges can feel overwhelming for anyone. I offer psychotherapy to help adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigate these difficulties. We'll work together in a supportive space to explore feelings and understand patterns. You'll develop practical ways to manage stress and improve relationships, fostering lasting emotional well-being. This approach suits those seeking tailored support for diverse concerns.

Approach

When life feels unsteady I focus on practical, steady steps that help you make sense of change and find manageable ways forward. Sessions in Pretoria are in-person and usually conducted in English, Afrikaans or Sesotho, with a calm pace that honours each person’s timing. Together we clarify immediate concerns, try small, real-life experiments between meetings, and track what eases anxiety, grief or relationship strain so adjustments are concrete. This way of working often suits adolescents, adults, couples and families seeking clear, hands-on support.
