BARBARA VAN HEERDEN CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST Welcome to my practice
"Trusting the individual’s innate wisdom on its journey to internal freedom and wellness." - JO Steenkamp
Are you struggling with issues relating to trauma, such as depression, grief, anxiety, stress and burnout, or major life changes? I have been practicing since 2001, specializing in creating the psychotherapeutic safe space where internal hurt, disappointments and pain are addressed allowing clients to re-align with their full potential.
Pay attention to your patterns.
To survive we develop certain coping styles, but these styles tend to limit us in later live.

PSYCHOTHERAPY
Psychotherapy is a process of self-discovery, healing and growth. As a registered SHIP® Facilitator the main psychotherapy modality I use is SHIP® (an acronym for Spontaneous Healing Intra-systemic Process). SHIP® (www.ship.org.za) is a dynamic psychobiological approach that engages with, and re-aligns, your internal systemic flow by holding a healing space where-in issues are addressed, and the unblocking of trauma-energy takes place. During this integration on your path to wellness your internal potentialities are set free. This internal connectedness and grounding of fitting into your personal sweet spot is simultaneously reflected during your unobscured interaction with the external world.
Feel free to engage with me on the possibilities of your internal healing journey.
