In Person Therapists in Linden

As a counselor, my mission is to guide individuals who are seeking more fulfillment in life, empowering them to navigate the delicate balance between work, personal aspirations, and self-discovery. I specialize in supporting clients who feel a stirring desire for change, recognizing that they are capable of achieving more and yearning to unlock their full potential. In our sessions, we explore the unique challenges that arise from juggling the demands of daily life, families and parenthood while striving to pursue personal dreams and aspirations.

I am a warm, amiable and down to earth psychologist based in Linden (Randburg, Johannesburg). While I work with adults of various ages and with a range of difficulties, I find it particularly rewarding to assist young adults (20s and 30s) grappling with depression, anxiety and childhood trauma. I also have an interest in helping clients with relationship difficulties, and working with major life changes, losses or events.

I work with adults and adolescents who may be feeling very sad and want to make some changes in their lives. I have many years of experience working with people who are suffering from substance abuse disorders and wish to work on their emotional and psychological health, to boost their chances of sobriety. I also work with couples wishing to improve their relationship. I am an LGBTQ-friendly practitioner.

My ideal clients are adults, couples and teenagers. It is my life passion and purpose to assist, support and steer my client towards sterling approaches and solutions for their problems. The latter addresses a wide range of difficulties such as anxiety, depression, ADD, OCD, other personal issues, relationship and work challenges. I believe that for every difficulty there is a creative way to bring comfort and solutions. My aim with my therapy is to inspire my clients hope for the future!

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.

Maxine is an HPCSA and PCNS registered arts therapist (MA Wits) working in private practice in Johannesburg. She has a special interest in holding space for life transitions (pregnancy, parenthood, birth, death, personal shifts, marriage, divorce) and exploring relationships and intimacy through attachment and concepts of belonging. Her practice is trauma informed and she approaches her work in a gentle, client led manner. She is also a qualified Expressive Movement facilitator and a Family Constellations practitioner, adding a strong foundation in somatic practice and systemic awareness.

My clients usually find themselves at life transitions or emotional crossroads. They face problems like low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, bipolar mood disorder, eating disorders, early childhood trauma, difficult life choices, early or mid-career stress, burn out, relationship difficulties and conflict, divorce, traumatic life events and grief.

I hold a special place in my heart for providing my clients with a safe and sacred space to explore and embrace their true selves. My hope is to provide my clients with the respect, honour and non-judgmental space through which they can feel safe and work towards their best selves. I recognize that relationships and personal challenges can seem daunting, however entering into counselling could be the beginning of gaining insight into your heart, others around you and the difficulties you may face. My hope is to empower my clients on their quest to personal growth and living a fulfilling life.

My name is Sybrand Hagan. I am a clinical psychologist based in Blairgowrie, Johannesburg. I offer psychotherapy for adolescents and adults who experience a range of psychological difficulties. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process and I tailor my therapeutic approach to suit the specific needs of each person. My aim is to offer a safe and non-judgemental space where you are able to explore the difficulties in your life, whether these are difficulties that you are currently facing or a pattern in your thoughts and behaviours that have caused a lack of satisfaction in your life.

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.

I am a 'Solution Focused' Counsellor integrating a variety of evidence-based psychological techniques such as Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to work with children (age 10 up), teenagers, adults, couples and families. I am particularly passionate about empowering teenagers and young adults to develop healthy coping skills and self-confidence to better manage challenging life situations such as bullying, toxic relationships, parental divorce or substance abuse. I enjoy interacting with diversity among people and aim to ensure that my clients feel safe, understood and supported throughout the counselling process.

I am passionate about supporting people with anything they bring to the session. I offer a safe space and I listen. I want to work with my clients to safely explore their thoughts and feelings. Together, we can uncover roadblocks and find new ways to deal with stress and conflict. Explore possibilities and rediscover motivation. Learn how to be more compassionate with yourself. I believe everyone has the potential to thrive, and I would like to help my clients find their unique path.

Theo works with a broad range of both in- and outpatients, particularly those whom are struggling with emotionally difficult situations, life transitions, and crisis (including trauma or coping too). That being said, if you are someone who thinks they can benefit from someone who helps you become a better you, you're at the right place. Theo is particularly fond of working with adolescents and students going through difficult times, but enjoys working with improving the healthy functioning of all clients.

I am a dedicated and enthusiastic counseling psychologist with expertise in addressing various forms of trauma. While proficient in diverse therapeutic modalities, I am particularly drawn to the family systems approach and cognitive behavioural therapy. However, I maintain flexibility in assessing and integrating other psychological techniques tailored to individual needs, treatment plans, and therapy objectives. Specialising in trauma/ trauma debriefs and BWRT, My practice in Johannesburg is located in Saxonwold, serving surrounding areas such as Parktown, Rosebank, Houghton and Greenside.

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.

As therapist and Sexologist, I have extensive experience in human development and fulfilment.

Sexual health therapy focusses on erectile function, sexual pain disorders, low libido, trauma, communication, conflict, recurring unhealthy cycles, sexual desires/arousal, infidelity, addictions, loss of connection, alternative relationship styles, sexual identity and other. Our development is our greatest achievement.

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.
