Elonie de Klerk Psychologist Paardevlei Background
Before specialising in psychology, Elonie spent four years touring internationally with a performance-arts company. After that, she taught life skills through dance to underprivileged children for three years. During her internship, she focused on student well-being and worked closely with adolescents and young adults. Since 2018, she has maintained a private practice. As a result, she has worked with a diverse range of clients and draws on her multicultural experiences.
As a trauma survivor, Elonie brings empathy and personal insight to every session. She believes that each client has the ability to heal and grow. Therefore, she uses an integrative approach that combines Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Ego-State Therapy, BrainWorking Recursive Therapy (BWRT®), Eye Movement Integration (EMI®), Tension & Trauma Release Exercises (TRE®), Somatic Experiencing (SE®), and Resource Therapy (RT). This approach addresses emotional, cognitive, and body-based aspects of well-being.
