About Alné
I am a clinical psychologist, registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa. I have experience working in mental health settings as well as correctional facilities, and have had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of people with various psychological difficulties. I am passionate about working with adolescents, adults, and families navigating life's challenges with understanding and compassion.
As both a psychologist and a mother, I understand the complexities of balancing personal, family, and professional responsibilities. This perspective deepens my appreciation for the demands many individuals and families face and informs my empathetic and practical approach to therapy. I believe that healing happens within safe and meaningful relationships, and I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients feel comfortable being themselves.
My goal is to walk alongside my clients as they develop greater insight, strengthen their coping skills, and create meaningful and lasting change in their lives.
Therapeutic approach
My approach is warm, compassionate, and tailored to the unique needs of each individual, recognising that every person's story, relationships, and life circumstances are different. I work holistically, drawing on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Client-Centred Therapy, Supportive Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. This integrative approach allows me to support clients in exploring their thoughts, emotions, behaviours, relationships, and life experiences while developing practical tools to navigate challenges and achieve their goals.
Whether you are navigating emotional difficulties, life transitions, relationship challenges, trauma, parenting concerns, or personal growth goals, I work alongside you to identify your strengths, overcome obstacles, and move towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.
