Dr Sarojini Naidoo

Counseling Psychologist

“An experienced therapist who has a special interest in suicidal and self-harm behaviour. I am trained in DBT and BWRT but also work from an eclectic framework”

About Me

I support individuals navigating the complex challenges of suicidal thoughts and self-harm. My approach integrates specific training in techniques like DBT and BWRT, providing practical skills for managing overwhelming emotions. I blend these with an eclectic framework, ensuring our sessions are tailored to your unique needs. Clients find this combination helps build resilience and find new ways forward, fostering a sense of hope.

Approach

You’ll find our work balances practical skill-building with gentle exploration of the memories and bodily signals that sustain distress, shaping each session to what feels most urgent for you. In Randburg and online, in English, I keep sessions focused and paced — short, targeted interventions are mixed with slower processing when trauma or relationship pain surfaces. Between sessions we practice simple, tangible strategies so moments of crisis can be interrupted and learning consolidates. People seeking steady, collaborative support during intense emotional times tend to benefit most.
