Astrid Piet

Counseling Psychologist

“A compassionate and experienced psychologist, I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life's challenges and achieve mental wellness. With 10 year experience, I provide intervention that is client centered and sensitive to the unique needs of every individual.”

About Me

Building on my 10 years' experience, I compassionately guide individuals, couples, and families through life's challenges. I ensure every session is truly client-centred, adapting our work to your unique needs and pace. I create a safe, understanding space for open exploration. This tailored approach helps you feel truly heard, empowering you to find your own path towards mental wellness.

Approach

Rooted in respect and curiosity, my work shifts from problem lists to exploring patterns, strengths and small experiments we can try together. Based in Cape Town and available online in English, sessions move at your pace—short check-ins, playful exploration for adolescents and reflective conversation for adults, couples and families. We use dialogue, gentle play and practical tasks between meetings to build insight and everyday coping skills. This collaborative, paced way of working suits people seeking steady, practical change.
