About Rosalind

Rosalind is a senior educational and counselling psychologist with over three decades of counselling, educational and forensic expertise. Behind that sits an extensive academic foundation — two Honours degrees and a Master's degree in Educational and Counselling Psychology, all from UNISA — and she has since furthered her studies and experience in neuropsychology. She has been assessing clients, both neuropsychologically and educationally, in third party claims since 2005.

Ros takes a compassionate, research-backed approach to supporting children, adolescents, adults, couples and families, alongside parent guidance, through tailored therapeutic intervention and comprehensive psychological assessment. She specialises in neuropsychological and forensic evaluations, and is a recognised expert in family law contexts, offering custody evaluations, mediation, case management and psycho-legal reporting.

She maintains active affiliations with the Psychological Society of South Africa (PsySSA), Neuropsychology SA and the South African Association of Mediators (SAAM). Her earlier career as a school principal, guidance counsellor and educator further sharpens her practical understanding of life-span developmental phases and of family systems.
