Mrs Riandie Marais
Educational Psychologist
“I am a dedicated Educational Psychologist who endeavours to equip myself with the knowledge and skills necessary to assist my clients.”
About Me
As an Educational Psychologist, I consistently equip myself with the latest knowledge to support children and young people. My focus is on helping them navigate learning challenges and emotional well-being. We can explore individual strengths and develop tailored strategies, such as understanding unique learning styles or building confidence. I aim to create a supportive space where families find practical ways to help their child thrive, ensuring they feel understood and prepared for their educational journey.
Approach
With a continual commitment to learning, I focus on practical, child-centred ways of exploring learning and emotional challenges so families feel guided through each step. In Pretoria I offer sessions in English and Afrikaans, both in person and online, and keep a calm, predictable pace that helps younger children settle. Sessions blend observation, play and structured tasks with clear feedback for parents; between meetings I suggest simple strategies to try at home. Families looking for straightforward, evidence-informed direction often find this approach helpful.
