Educational Psychologist
verified by TherapyRoute
“Dynamic psychologist interested in working with children with Intellectual disabilities and learning barriers. I am interested in parenting and helping parents have a better relationship with thier children.”
About Me
I support children navigating intellectual disabilities and learning barriers, helping them discover their unique strengths. I also guide parents to build stronger, more harmonious relationships with their children. We can explore practical strategies together, making sense of challenges and finding ways forward. My collaborative approach creates a supportive space for families seeking understanding and positive change. I value supporting both your child's development and your family bond.
Approach
Working with children who learn differently, I translate assessment findings into clear, everyday steps so parents and teachers can try them right away. Sessions—in Roodepoort or online, in English, seTswana or isiZulu—are conversational but focused, paced to a child’s attention and the family’s rhythms. I use short activities, practical coaching and written recommendations that inform school placement and concessions discussions, with regular check-ins to see what’s actually changing. Families seeking hands-on, realistic support to strengthen daily routines and relationships often find this approach helpful.
