Ms Tholoana Mokhesi

Clinical Psychologist

“A skilled and capable therapist working with individuals, families, couples, adolescents and preteens going through life challenges.”

About Me

Navigating life's challenges can feel heavy. This therapist offers a grounded, supportive space for individuals, families, couples, adolescents, and preteens. They help you make sense of difficult feelings and find practical ways forward. Sessions focus on understanding your specific situation, creating clarity and building inner strength. This approach helps clients move through transitions with greater ease and confidence.

Approach

Working with people across generations, I pace sessions to match your needs—careful listening paired with practical planning. In my Pretoria office I offer sessions in English and Sesotho, creating a calm, predictable setting where we explore feelings and patterns. Therapy blends focused conversation, simple explanations and short between-session tasks to work through grief, mood shifts, relationship strain and recovery from abuse. This way of working suits individuals and families seeking clarity and steady, achievable change.
