Sarah Hathorn
Clinical Psychologist
Welcome to my practice.
I am a clinical psychologist based in Saxonwold, Johannesburg, offering psychodynamic psychotherapy to adults, adolescents and families.
I understand that beginning therapy can feel daunting. If you are considering booking a session and are looking for more information, I hope that this can be a helpful starting point.
My approach
I specialise in psychodynamic psychotherapy for adults, adolescents and families.
I work from a predominantly psychodynamic perspective, meaning I believe in the unconscious, and that our feelings about ourselves and others are often rooted in our early experiences. At the same time, I am attuned to the social factors that shape our ways of living in the world, and consider each individual holistically in their context.
In my practice, I seek to gently support you in getting to know your unique ways of responding and relating. I hope to facilitate insight into past patterns that may be unconsciously repeated, while fostering self-esteem and personal agency in the present.
My style is warm and collaborative, and all sessions are confidential.
