A therapeutic approach teens can trust

Dr. Melanie du Preez combines clinical expertise with deep compassion and a non-judgemental approach.

With years of experience working with adolescents, she builds strong therapeutic alliances that encourage open conversation and sustainable emotional development.

Using modalities such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), BrainWorking Recursive Therapy (BWRT®), and narrative approaches, Melanie helps teens understand their thoughts and behaviours — and equips them with the tools they need to feel more in control.

In-person and online teen counselling available

We offer both teen counselling in Klerksdorp at our warm, inviting practice in Lenmed Sunningdale Hospital, as well as online therapy sessions for teenagers across South Africa. Each session is tailored to the unique needs and comfort levels of your child or adolescent.

Parental support is part of the process

As part of the journey, Melanie also provides guidance and psychoeducation for parents — helping you understand your teen’s emotional world and support their progress with empathy and confidence.
