Ms Louise Bolton

Licensed Clinical Psychologists

“I work with a variety of different presentations through the use of behavioural therapies such as CBT/DBT and REBT.”

About Me

I work with adults navigating a wide range of emotional and behavioural challenges. I help you understand and shift unhelpful patterns, drawing on behavioural therapies such as CBT, DBT, and REBT. We can explore how your thoughts and actions influence your feelings, developing practical tools for daily life. My approach is ideal for those seeking clear, evidence-based strategies to create lasting positive change.

Approach

Sessions unfold with a practical, problem-solving rhythm: targeted skill practice, brief experiments and focused reflection that help translate insight into everyday change. I offer appointments in Sandton and online, in English or Afrikaans, pacing sessions to your needs and balancing direct skill coaching with space to process. We co-create short, measurable goals, use tailored between-session exercises for relationship or adolescent challenges, and regularly review progress to refine strategies. This way of working suits those seeking clear, evidence-informed steps to manage feelings and shift patterns.
