Clinical Psychologist

“'I am a Clinical Psychologist in private practice. I work with Adults, Teenagers and Geriatric Clients”

About Me

As a Clinical Psychologist, I provide a confidential space for adults, teenagers, and geriatric clients. I help individuals navigate difficult emotions, life transitions, and personal challenges. Our sessions offer a place to openly explore thoughts and feelings without judgment. We work collaboratively to understand your unique experiences. Together, we find practical ways forward, supporting you in building resilience at your own pace.

Approach

Therapy here feels practical and paced, meeting you where change matters most and translating insight into small, doable steps. I work from a private consulting room in Johannesburg and offer sessions in English and Afrikaans, so we can shape the work in the language you trust. Sessions blend assessment-informed clarity with focused reflection, skill practice and short between-session tasks when helpful, so progress is trackable and concrete. This way of working suits adolescents, adults and older clients seeking steady, evidence-minded support.
