Ms Tholoana Mokhesi

Clinical Psychologist

“An experienced and competent therapist working with individuals, families and couples going through life challenges.”

About Me

This experienced Clinical Psychologist supports individuals, families, and couples navigating life's many complexities. They offer a calm, collaborative space to explore difficult emotions and find new pathways forward. Clients facing personal struggles or relationship hurdles find a clear, supportive approach. This therapist helps them build resilience and develop practical strategies for lasting change.

Approach

I guide therapy with a steady, practical rhythm that helps people untangle emotions and recognise unhelpful patterns. In Pretoria I meet adolescents, adults, couples and families, and offer sessions in English, Sesotho and seTswana to make space accessible and understood. Sessions blend careful assessment with focused conversation, short reflective tasks and concrete steps to shift thinking, behaviour and relationships; between appointments I share brief observations and small experiments to try. This way of working often suits those navigating anxiety, grief, relationship strain or burnout.
