Prof Zelda Knight | Counselling Psychology

About

Finding Clarity Through The Therapeutic Relationship

Sometimes life feels heavier than it should. Grief lingers. Anxiety builds. Relationships strain under the weight of things left unsaid. These are not signs of weakness. They are signals that something needs attention.

Professor Zelda Knight is a registered Counselling Psychologist with over 25 years of experience in psychodynamic psychotherapy. Based at the N.H.C Health Centre in Honeydew, Johannesburg, she works with adults and couples navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, and the deeper existential questions that shape how we live.

Her approach is grounded in one core belief: the relationship is the therapy. That means therapy here is not something done to you. It is a process you move through together, at your own pace, toward clarity and change.
