Kimona is a Clinical Psychologist who believes that healing begins when people feel truly understood. Many of the individuals she works with arrive feeling overwhelmed, stuck or emotionally exhausted. Often carrying their struggles quietly and alone. Her aim is to offer a supportive, thoughtful space where clients can slow down, feel safe and begin to make sense of their experiences with compassion and curiosity.

She completed her Bachelor of Arts, Honours, and Master’s degrees in Clinical Psychology at the University of the Witwatersrand. Her clinical training took place at Tara H. Moross Psychiatric Hospital, where she worked with adults and adolescents across a range of inpatient and outpatient settings, providing individual and group psychotherapy for diverse emotional, psychological, and personality difficulties.

She later completed her community service at Sizwe Tropical Disease Hospital, working with patients living with drug-resistant tuberculosis and HIV. This experience deepened her understanding of the close connection between physical and emotional health. As well as the profound effects of stigma, trauma and socioeconomic hardship. Working closely with mothers, infants and families during this time sparked a special interest in reproductive mental health and early attachment relationships.

Since qualifying as a Clinical Psychologist, she has continued to expand her clinical skills through ongoing training in parent–infant psychotherapy with Ububele and is a member of the South African Association for Infant Mental Health (ZA-AIMH). She is also affiliated with the South African Society of Reproductive Medicine and Gynaecological Endoscopy (SASREG). With a particular focus on women’s emotional well-being across the reproductive journey.

In her work, Kimona offers a collaborative and supportive therapeutic process, tailored to each individual’s unique needs, experiences, and goals.
