Mr Richard Parry

Clinical Psychologist

I work with adults, adolescents, and families to bring about meaningful and durable change in a compassionate and thoughtful environment.

About Me

I work with adults, adolescents, and families, creating a compassionate and thoughtful environment for lasting change. Together, we explore underlying patterns and develop practical strategies to navigate life’s challenges. My aim is for you to gain deeper understanding and build resilience. Clients seeking a collaborative space to foster meaningful, durable shifts will find support here.

Approach

I lead practical, paced sessions in Johannesburg conducted in English, where curiosity is paired with clear, doable steps toward change. We map the repetitive thoughts, interactions and routines that keep difficulties alive, then convert insights into small experiments to try between meetings. Sessions mix focused reflection, family-facing dialogue and skills rehearsal so new responses can be tested safely in daily life. Those wanting steady, collaborative progress often find this structured, hands-on way of working useful.
