Miss Sherlinka Naidoo

Counseling Psychologist

A qualified counselling psychologist in Johannesburg, predominately working with adolescents, adults and couples. Interest in working with young adults/life transitions, grief, trauma, depression/anxiety disorders. I competently offer evidence-based psychotherapeutic services rooted in my clients unique social context.

About Me

As a Counseling psychologist in Johannesburg, I work with adolescents, adults, and couples. I support those navigating life transitions, grief, or trauma. We also address depression and anxiety. My evidence-based approach is always rooted in your unique social context. Together, we can explore practical ways forward, fostering resilience and well-being tailored to your life.

Approach

Sessions move at a pace you set, combining practical strategies with reflective space so you can make sense of transitions, loss or overwhelming feelings. In Johannesburg or online in English, I tend to use short, focused exercises between meetings alongside gentle exploration during sessions to build coping skills and shift unhelpful patterns. We track small, measurable changes and adjust tools to your context rather than following a rigid plan. This way of working suits people ready for steady, collaborative steps toward feeling more grounded.
