Dr Monica van Niekerk

Educational Psychologist

I believe my work assist others on a journey of self-discovery and healing with lasting growth as life can sometimes be difficult.

About Me

Life's difficulties can feel overwhelming, but they also offer a path to understanding ourselves better. As an Educational Psychologist, I support you on a journey of self-discovery and healing. We can gently explore your experiences together, making sense of challenges and fostering lasting personal growth. This approach suits anyone ready to navigate life's complexities with clarity and build inner resilience.

Approach

When life feels difficult I step in with steady curiosity, helping you notice patterns and small shifts that build dependable change. In Pretoria or online I work in Afrikaans or English, keeping sessions paced to your needs—sometimes measured assessment work, sometimes shorter, focused interventions and calmer-state techniques to access new responses between meetings. We set clear goals together, review progress, and adjust gently so therapy feels manageable. This way suits people of any age seeking practical understanding and sustainable coping.
