Hi , I'm Kim

I am a Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (PS0132780) and the Board of Healthcare Funders (Practice No 0691607). I have been in private practice for nine years and consult from rooms in Lynnwood Glen, Pretoria, and at InsideOut Rockfields in Rooihuiskraal North, Centurion.

I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and families. My clinical approach is grounded in General Systems Theory and relational thinking: I am interested in the patterns between people, not only what is happening inside one person.

Areas of Focus

  • Matrescence and the transition to motherhood: the
    identity, relational, and psychological shifts of becoming a mother
  • Couple and family therapy, including blended and stepfamily dynamics
  • Forensic assessment in family law matters: care and
    contact, relocation, residency, and voice-of-the-child assessments
  • Psychometric assessment: personality, cognitive, emotional, and medico-legal
  • Corporate psychological services:
    psychological fitness assessments and matrescence-focused workplace programmes

I believe that meaningful change
happens in relationship, in the therapy room, in families, in couples, and in
the systems we live within. My aim is to offer a space that is clinically rigorous, relationally attuned, and honest about the complexity of what you are navigating.
