Mrs Emma Lomberg

Counseling Psychologist

I am a Counselling Psychologist that works with children, adolescents, adults and couples. I also offer a variety of psychological assessments. I use an integrative approach to best meet your individual needs. I aim to create a space where you feel heard and safe to discuss any issue you may be facing.

About Me

I create a collaborative, safe space where children, adolescents, adults, and couples can explore their challenges. My integrative approach ensures sessions are uniquely tailored to your individual needs. You will feel truly heard and supported as we work to understand the issues you face. I also provide psychological assessments, offering valuable insights. This flexible style helps clients find clarity and a path forward, feeling understood every step.

Approach

Sessions unfold as a collaborative exploration, with your priorities guiding when we talk, review assessment findings and try practical strategies. I offer face-to-face appointments in Sandton and secure online sessions in English, shaping pace and focus around your day-to-day life. Typical sessions combine attentive listening, brief structured tasks, clear feedback from psychological assessments when useful, and agreed between-session steps so change feels tangible. Those coping with anxiety, grief, relationship strain or burnout often find this steady, tailored rhythm helpful.
