Psychologist, MA, HPCSA - Clin. Psych.

I am particularly passionate about working with adolescents and young adults at my practice. Whether you have childhood wounds that you would like to heal, have recently experienced a loss, are having relationship difficulties or find yourself struggling with major life adjustments, therapy can be useful to explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe space free of judgement. Additionally, it can help you to manage stressors that trigger depression, anxiety, or unhealthy coping behaviours, and can make you aware of certain unhelpful patterns that affect how you experience yourself, others and the world.

Gené van der Merwe
Counsellor
Life can be very challenging. We are sometimes faced with situations that are beyond our control, such as the loss of a loved one or the actions of our partners and families. We are not always in control of the experiences life gives us, but we are in control of how we deal with them. At times even our own actions or decisions cause us stress and pain. Whichever journey it is that you need to explore in order to heal and grow, remember to reach out for help. You do not have to go through it alone.
Ann Lindsey Nortje
Psychologist, HPCSA - Ed. Psych.
Verified
I love working with young Educational Psychologists in developing their skills through supervision and various workshops. I also have a passion for working with teenagers and young adults. Much of my work focuses on Career Guidance and Development, where I combine an exciting range of qualitative techniques with the more traditional psychometric approach. This allows me to assist individuals in gaining insight into their personal journeys and motivations as they make career decisions, thereby enriching their self-knowledge. I conduct Psycho-Educational assessments for IEB and GDE Accommodation purposes, and for diagnostic purposes.

Yolan Moodley
Psychologist, MA, HPCSA - Couns. Psych.
Verified
Most people just want to be happy. While that can certainly be achieved through counselling, I believe happiness is an emotion, like others, that comes and goes. Instead I work with you to create more peace, joy and fulfilment in your life. These are deeper long-lasting goals that are the foundation of life satisfaction. Over and above the specific concern you wish to work on, I aim to help you connect with who you really are as a person and facilitate the path to who you would like to be.

Robbie Pearman
Psychologist, MPsych, HPCSA - Couns. Psych.
Verified
I am a Counselling Psychologist situated in the northern suburbs of Johannesburg, in close proximity to the areas of Rosebank and Sandton. I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families addressing current challenges with a Solution Focused approach. These challenges may include some more common complaints such as depression and anxiety, or those trying to come to terms with a trauma or bereavement. My approach is focused and therefore short-term in nature. As such long term time commitments is uncommon. I hope this can help people achieve significant change whilst offering them a more cost effective therapeutic approach.

Jamie Hyslop
Psychologist, MA, HPCSA - Clin. Psych.
Verified
People usually seek help from a psychologist when they want something to change. This desire for change may be motivated by painful thoughts and feelings, a situation at work, school, or at home, a challenging event, or relationships with others. Sometimes people work with a psychologist because they want a better understanding of themselves, to change behaviours, or to develop new skills to support their well-being. If any of this is true for you or for someone you care about, getting in contact with a psychologist is a useful step to take.
Megan Vries
Psychologist, MPsych, HPCSA - Clin. Psych.
Verified
My name is Megan Vries. I am a clinical psychologist, based in Craighall Park. The majority of my work is with the adolescent and young adult population, including students and young professionals. This is a very challenging period as young people are experiencing cognitive, social, emotional and interpersonal changes. Adolescents may be under significantly more pressure than when they were younger, in that more is expected from them academically and socially.
