Mrs Dedri Hamman

Licensed Educational Psychologist

I am an Educational Psychologist with more than 10years of experience in the field of education. I'm passionate about working with children in a holsitc manner.

About Me

As an Educational Psychologist, I am passionate about helping children thrive. With over a decade of experience, I offer holistic support. My approach considers each child's unique world. We explore how their learning, emotions, and environment interact. This tailored understanding helps children find confidence and navigate their educational journey. I create a space where young people feel truly heard, empowering them to succeed.

Approach

Hands-on assessment and playful tasks shape sessions, helping us see how a child learns, feels and responds and turning those insights into practical steps. In Cape Town I offer appointments in English and Afrikaans and via secure online sessions for families who prefer remote support. I involve parents through focused feedback, collaborative planning and simple home strategies between meetings so progress carries into everyday life. This approach suits families looking for clear, child-centred understanding and manageable next steps.
