Clinical Psychologist | Johannesburg & Cape Town
Dr Jonathan Nel
Psychotherapy for the complexities of adult life.
Dr Jonathan Nel is a clinical psychologist offering adult psychotherapy for people navigating emotional difficulties, relationship and interpersonal tensions, stress, burnout, questions of identity, and the search for meaning and direction.
A space to understand what you are experiencing.
People often seek psychotherapy when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from a sense of direction, or worn down by personal and interpersonal difficulties that persist. Therapy offers time to look at these experiences carefully; it does not promise any particular outcome.
Dr Nel practises as a clinical psychologist with a focus on adults. Read more about Dr Nel.
