Frequently asked Questions
What issues do you help with?
I support children, teens, and adults with a wide range of emotional, behavioural, and learning concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, school difficulties, career guidance, and family challenges.
Do I need a referral to book an appointment?
No. You can book directly — referrals from doctors, teachers, or other professionals are welcome but not required.
What are your rates?
My rates are in line with current medical aid rates. I charge R1200 per session.
I also offer cash rate for R880 for non medical aid clients.
Will medical aid cover your services?
Yes. I am registered with the HPCSA and BHF, and many medical aids reimburse for psychological services. Please check with your scheme regarding benefits and coverage. Not all medical aids cover the services of Educational Psychologists
Do you submit directly to medical aid?
I can submit to medical aid on your behalf provided that you have the funds available and that your medical aid covers the services of an educational psychologist.
What therapeutic approaches or modalities do you use?
My approach is client centred so I adapt my therapeutic approach to suit my clients' needs. I draw from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), BrainWorking Recursive Therapy (BWRT), Psychodynamic psychotherapy and strengths-based and solution-focused approaches.
How long is a therapy session?
Therapy sessions are typically 50 minutes long. This is known as a therapeutic hour. The remaining 10 minutes allows me to make notes from the session and prepare for the next client.
What can I expect during the first session?
The first session focuses on understanding your concerns, history, and goals. It’s a gentle, conversational session designed to help you feel comfortable and supported.
