Leonie M Dippenaar
Life Coach, BWRT® Master Coach | Certified Hypnotherapist (CHT) | Ethno Psychology Practitioner (EPP)
OCD thinking can create a cycle of intrusive thoughts, anxiety, doubt, and overwhelm that feels difficult to switch off. Our work focuses on understanding the patterns behind the distress, reducing the emotional intensity attached to unwanted thoughts, and developing practical tools to respond differently so you can experience greater calm and control.

Online in Johannesburg, Gauteng (Online Only)
Johannesburg is South Africa's economic powerhouse, where the mental health landscape is deeply shaped by high levels of crime and safety anxiety, significant economic inequality, and the ongoing psychological weight of apartheid's legacy. A well-developed private therapy sector is concentrated in the northern suburbs—Sandton, Rosebank, Melrose Arch, and Parkhurst—serving professionals, executives, and an international expat community. Demand is high for therapy addressing trauma, anxiety, relationship issues, and workplace stress, with many practitioners also specialising in race, identity, and cultural adjustment. Public mental health services are strained, so most residents seeking therapy engage with private practitioners or through employer assistance programmes.
