Eidde Francke – Clinical Psychologist – Woodmead practices at Franck Origins Psychologists in Woodmead, where she leads adult and child mental-health programmes. She holds a Master’s in Clinical Psychology and a Bachelor’s in Psychology, and she is registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa.

Therefore, each care pathway reflects a truly patient-centred approach. In addition, she works closely with psychiatrists, occupational therapists, dietitians, and social workers. As a result, every plan integrates psychological, medical, and social elements for holistic care.

Services

Eidde delivers a suite of personalized psychological services, each structured around evidence-based methods, measurable objectives, and active client engagement:

• Individual Psychotherapy
  She offers one-on-one sessions in CBT, ACT, and narrative therapy, helping clients address anxiety, depression, and stress. Moreover, she integrates mindfulness exercises to boost resilience.

• Play Therapy (Children & Adolescents)
  Through structured play, she helps young clients express emotions safely. Consequently, children build coping skills while parents receive guidance on reinforcing progress at home.

• Trauma-Focused EMDR
  She uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to process traumatic memories. As a result, clients often report reduced distress and improved emotional regulation.

• Family & Couples Counselling
  In joint sessions, she facilitates communication skills, conflict resolution, and mutual support strategies. Therefore, relationships regain trust and strengthen over time.

• Psychological Assessments & Evaluations
  Employing standardized tools—such as MMPI and Beck inventories—she assesses personality, mood, and cognitive function. Then, she translates results into tailored treatment plans.

• Group Therapy Programmes
  Small groups focus on stress management, social skills, and emotional regulation. Moreover, group dynamics foster peer support and shared learning.

Each service highlights a collaborative patient experience. In addition, Eidde continuously refines interventions based on outcome data and client feedback.
