Mrs Romy Perkins

Clinical Psychologist

“Psychodynamically oriented psychotherapy-shorter and longer term.”

About Me

As a clinical psychologist, I offer psychodynamically oriented psychotherapy. We explore how past experiences influence your current feelings and relationships. This work helps you understand the deeper roots of your challenges. I provide a thoughtful space for both shorter and longer-term engagement. This approach suits those seeking lasting insight into their emotional patterns and a deeper self-understanding. It can lead to meaningful personal change.

Approach

Therapy here unfolds by tracking recurring emotional and relational patterns, helping you notice how earlier hurts shape today’s responses. I work from Sandton, conducting sessions in English both face-to-face and online, keeping a steady, reflective pace so we can explore sensitive material safely. In-session I listen closely, name unconscious threads, and offer careful observations and questions that help you test new ways of relating between sessions. People dealing with anxiety, mood shifts, relationship wounds or past abuse often find this deliberate, exploratory way of working useful.
