I am passionate about seeing lives changed and clients reaching their full potential, even though there may seem to be no hope. In my sessions I view every individual as unique and do not treat my clients with a “one size fits all approach” I believe that even though clients may have similar problems their experience and the way they view their problems are different from others.
At the Teddy Bear Clinic for Abused Children I have gained experience on rape/sexual abuse and testifying in a criminal court for 5yrs. I worked in a township for 10 years, the African culture has enriched my experience as a Psychologist. Currently doing my PHD developing a marriage programme. I am passionate about couples finding each other again.
You are able to get through your difficulty and pain. You are able to move on, be strong and independent. Take that one step for help, you will surprise yourself, you have more strength within you than you could ever know.
Take the first step to help. Call or Dr. Marilyn Cathleen Saunders now - 087 250 0162 x68

In my sessions, I view every individual as unique. With that being said, "I do not treat my clients with a one-size-fits-all all approach" I believe that even though clients may have similar issues, their experiences and how they view their problems differ. I use elective treatment, which accords the needs of the client.
