Cindy-Lee Norman is a respected Clinical Psychologist at Meaningful Minds Psychologists in Alberton, Gauteng. She completed her Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology at the University of South Africa (UNISA), where she received systemic and interactional training. Consequently, she developed a strong foundation in viewing individuals within their broader contexts. Moreover, Cindy-Lee blends rigorous academic insight with compassionate care to support each client’s unique journey.
Her therapeutic philosophy holds that the psyche is multilayered and that healing is a non-linear journey. Therefore, she helps clients co-create meaning, ensuring overwhelming feelings become understandable and integrated. By exploring personal narratives, clients gain clarity and agency rather than feeling driven by past patterns. Furthermore, she addresses each person’s context—relationships, culture, and environment—to foster lasting change.
During her internship at Weskoppies Psychiatric Hospital and community service at Rahima Moosa Mother and Child Hospital, Cindy-Lee treated diverse cases on both inpatient and outpatient levels. She facilitated Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) groups for adolescents and provided under-5 therapy, showcasing her versatility across age ranges. Currently, she pursues a PhD in Psychology at the University of Johannesburg, researching “Narratives of South African Women and Their Experiences of Intergenerational Trauma.” This work further underscores her commitment to culturally informed practice.
