Who am I?
Hello, I’m Yvette Punt, a registered Educational Psychologist in Durbanville, Cape Town. My passion lies in supporting the growth and well-being of infants, children, adolescents, and parents. I specialise in a range of challenges like attention problems (ADHD), learning disabilities, anxiety, depression, social skills, emotional support and more, offering support not just to children but also to parents on their journey.
Fluent in both Afrikaans and English, I’m here to help families navigate through these challenges and turn them into opportunities.
