Welcome to a safe place for you and your family on your journey towards healing and improving your life.
I am a Psychologist in Roodepoort and it is one of my personal belief systems that every person is unique and individual, and therefore needs to be treated holistically and with respect. A one type fits all approach can never be applied to the therapeutic process. At this practice, a blended use of therapeutic frameworks are implemented for each presenting problem in order to achieve the most effective outcome.
