Clinical Psychologist, PhD
Dr. Lesley Takalani Mauda
HPCSA Registered · Polokwane
A supportive, therapeutic space where your story matters. In-person and online sessions available.
Your Journey to Healing Begins Here
At our practice, we provide a supportive and therapeutic space that allows you to share your story. Your innermost feelings will be normalized and validated, while thoughts that maintain emotional distress will be gently challenged and replaced with more positive alternatives.
We believe it is not what people go through that sustains mental health challenges—it is their interpretation of what has happened. Our approach addresses this at its core.
We offer psychotherapy from an eclectic approach, primarily Cognitive Behavioural Therapy oriented. Psychotherapy is provided in the form of individual, family, and group sessions—all within the Biopsychosocialspiritual Model.
