Welcome To
Roxanne Luther
I am a Clinical Psychologist in the east of Pretoria focusing on therapy with adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families for a wide array of emotional difficulties. Also providing assessment services such as career guidance, subject selection, school readiness assessment, personnel selection, and clinical assessment.
Special interest in working with children, adolescents, and survivors of childhood trauma.
About Me
I am passionate about working with people and being a part of their journeys towards healing and growth.
I work collaboratively with my clients and focus on generating insight, identifying patterns that keep them stuck and withhold them from reaching their full potential. My goal is to make the principles behind the science of psychology relatable to all clients in a practical and understandable way and assist them in applying these principles to their everyday lives.
I am of the opinion that mental health is not only the absence of illness but the presence of wellness.

My Approach
A combination of therapeutic approaches is used integratively to meet each client’s individual needs and personality style.
Although I am predominantly trained in systemic and family therapy I expanded my training to include approaches such as: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution focussed therapy, Narrative therapy, Somatic and body focussed therapy, Trauma focussed therapy, Imago relationship therapy, Attachment-based child psychotherapy and other play therapies, Art therapy, Dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT) and Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP). Certain aspects of Psychodynamic therapy are also utilised in individual therapy processes.
I view myself and my client as a team, working together to achieve mental wellness. Without this collaboration, therapy cannot be successful.
