Miranda Pretorius
M.A. in Clinical Psychology
Miranda has been a Clinical Psychologist for the last 30 years. She can deal with all mental health issues as part of her qualification. This includes Major Depression, Bipolar Mood Disorder and Anxiety Disorder. She is particularly interested in helping people with addictions (alcohol and other substances). She also enjoys doing marital therapy as well as family therapy. Her approach is solution-focused, eclectic, and grounded in psychological science.
Miranda also started working for Genius Within as a Life Coach in January this year, dealing with clients who experience workplace difficulties due to ADHD, Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia, Dyslexia, and other disorders under the Neurodiverse umbrella. She previously worked in the EAP field and is au fait with dealing with clients and managers in the workplace. She aims to assist clients to function optimally in the workplace and in general, everyday life.
Other difficulties Miranda deals with in my private practice as well as in a Life Coach capacity are Trauma, Long Covid, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Multiple Sclerosis.
Miranda speaks Afrikaans (she lives in South Africa), and apart from speaking English fluently, she can understand Dutch, Flemish and Belgium.
She is passionate about her work and endeavour to assist clients to the best of my ability.
