Giada

Dr Giada Del Fabbro

Clinical Psychologist

“I am a clinical and forensic psychologist specialised in medico-legal and divorce work and psychotherapy with adults and teenagers.”

About Me

I offer specialised psychological support to adults and teenagers navigating complex medico-legal or divorce situations. My approach helps clients find clarity and stability during challenging times. In psychotherapy, we work collaboratively to explore difficult emotions and develop practical strategies. I aim to provide a grounded space for processing experiences, fostering confident progress.

Approach

Work unfolds with clear, practical steps: we set priorities that respect legal timelines while allowing space to process intense feelings. In my Johannesburg consulting room (and in English), sessions balance structured assessment with reflective discussion, using focused strategies between meetings—short tasks, evidence summaries or appointment-ready reports—to reduce overwhelm. I pace sessions to the individual's needs, addressing anger, relational strain or trauma through careful exploration and behavioural planning. This approach often suits people who need both clarity for proceedings and steadier emotional footing.
