Dr Nico van der Merwe

Psychiatrist

I am a psychiatrist based at Denmar Psychiatric Hospital in Pretoria with an interest in general adult psychiatry.

About Me

I offer a supportive space for adults navigating various mental health concerns. Based at Denmar Psychiatric Hospital in Pretoria, I guide you through understanding your unique challenges. We can explore your feelings and develop a clear path forward, helping you find stability. My aim is to provide thoughtful, individualised care. Clients seeking a compassionate, structured approach to well-being often find a good match.

Approach

Here the work is practical and paced to your needs, blending focused assessment with clear, achievable steps that you help shape. In sessions I listen closely, reflect patterns back plainly, and we set short-term goals while tracking mood and function between visits; I offer appointments in English and Afrikaans and can meet in person in Pretoria or online. The process is collaborative and steady, aimed at restoring routine and resilience. People seeking structured, compassionate support often find this approach helpful.
