Here she focused on aiding individuals, families and groups with their processing and growth. Bronwyn also joined clinical psychologist, Stavroula Samouris in her practice dealing with surrogacy applications, medical negligence as well as the administration, marking and report writing of the Road Accident Fund cases in the practice.
Bronwyn has a passion for the clinical side of psychology and has worked on the Unitas Hospital call list for the Emergency rooms and Trauma Unit since 2017. With experience from multiple professionals as well as varying cases from the practice, Bronwyn has developed a deep understanding of people, their uniqueness as well as different cultural backgrounds and the process of therapy and healing from any mental illness, trauma or difficulty in life.
Bronwyns empathetic approach emphasises the hope in all individuals as well as the mutual development and growth in the therapeutic process which may include evaluation, coping mechanisms, techniques as well as support and guidance. This may be applied to individuals, groups, families and companies.
