Kirsten Barnardt

As a Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa, I offer individual therapy for children, adolescents and adults. I provide short and longer term therapy in Sea Point, Cape Town. At the beginning of the therapeutic process, the first two to four sessions will allow me to gain a better understanding of your current concerns and background. Thereafter, we can discuss a therapeutic plan and potential referrals to other healthcare professionals.

CURRENT FOCUS AREAS
