Ms Ntsapo Livi

Licensed Educational Psychologist

“An Educational Psychologist working with children, adolescents and youth of all ages as well as their parents, teachers, siblings and peers; promoting mental health, treating psychopathology and facilitating learning and development across all ages.”

About Me

An Educational Psychologist helps young people and their families flourish. They work closely with children, adolescents, and youth to navigate learning challenges and emotional difficulties. By collaborating with parents, teachers, and siblings, they create supportive environments. This holistic approach facilitates development and promotes mental health. Tailored strategies address unique needs within their wider system, offering a grounded space for progress.

Approach

With a focus on supporting learning and emotional growth, I shape therapy around practical steps that fit family life and school routines. Sessions in Mthatha or online move at a clear, collaborative pace: short assessments when needed, goal-setting with parents and teachers, and simple strategies practised between meetings in isiXhosa, isiZulu or English. I listen for patterns, adjust plans as progress shows, and keep feedback straightforward so everyone knows the next small step. This way of working often suits caregivers and young people seeking steady, measurable change.
