About us

We are a psychiatric practice in Kew, Gauteng, South Africa. We provide child and adolescent therapy, play therapy, community psychology, and group therapy. We work with children, adolescents and their families.

Approach

Based in Johannesburg, our approach brings families into steady, practical sessions where pace is set by the child’s comfort and the family’s goals. We use English and isiZulu, blend playful, structured activities with short caregiver check-ins, and share concise updates with school and care teams between appointments so everyone stays aligned. Assessments act as collaborative maps, guiding small, doable steps and strategies parents can try at home. This way of working suits families who want clear, practical support that fits everyday life.
