Do you resonate?
Countless people have grown up with the belief that internal stuff shouldn’t be discussed- rather it should be swept under the rug. This is perhaps the single worst thing you can do for yourself. Suppressing your emotions and not working through your emotional challenges can result in a host of problems. Let me help.
Hi, I’m Candice. I’m a psychologist based in Gardens, Cape Town.
I obtained my Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology at the University of the Western Cape, where I was involved in research which focused on finding the most effective treatment for adult ADHD. I completed my internship at Sterkfontein Psychiatric Hospital and spent time working in schools with children and adolescents struggling with anxiety and depression. I went on to complete my community service year at Pollsmoor Correctional Services .
Before becoming a Clinical Psychologist, I worked as a school counsellor with a focus on traumatised, bereaved and anxious children.
My current interest areas are Mood Disorders (Depression & Bipolar), Anxiety, Personality Disorders, Neurodevelopmental Disorders (ADHD, Autism), Psychotic Disorders and Trauma.
