About our
practice

PM Psychology  was founded with the belief that every person carries within them the potential for healing, growth, and meaningful transformation. At the heart of our practice is Palesa Makau, a registered Counselling Psychologist (MA Counselling Psychology, North-West University), who is deeply committed to creating a therapeutic space that is compassionate, inclusive, and attuned to the unique journey of each client.

We understand that life can be complex, often marked by pain, transition, identity struggles, trauma, or quiet questions about one’s worth and purpose. Our mission is to walk alongside individuals through these experiences, offering a space where they can feel seen, heard, and gently guided back to themselves.

Palesa works from a holistic and integrative framework, combining evidence-based psychological approaches with deep respect for each person’s cultural, emotional, and spiritual context. Therapy here is not about fixing, but about rediscovering wholeness, empowering you to reconnect with your story, reclaim your voice, and move forward with clarity and courage.

At PM Psychology, we don’t just offer therapy, we offer a journey of becoming.

Our practice ethos.

At PM Psychology , we view counselling as a collaborative and transformative process. A sacred space where individuals are invited to pause, reflect, and gently return to themselves. We believe that healing does not come from being “fixed” but from being truly seen, heard, and supported. Our approach honours the whole person and is grounded in deep respect for each client’s story, identity, and capacity for growth.

Healing Through Relationship

We believe that healing unfolds in the context of safe, trusting, and authentic relationships. The therapeutic alliance becomes a mirror, a container, and a compass. Where empathy, respect, and non-judgment create the conditions for true transformation. In being met with presence and care, clients begin to experience themselves differently: worthy, whole, and capable of change.

You Are Not Your Pain

At the core of our philosophy is the belief that every individual carries innate wisdom, resilience, and untapped potential even in the midst of pain. Rather than pathologising experiences, we help clients reconnect with their strengths and values, empowering them to live with intention, courage, and authenticity. You are more than what happened to you, you are becoming.

Context Matters

We honour all contexts that shape each person’s lived experience. Our practice is grounded in humility and responsiveness, creating space for clients to explore identity, belonging, and meaning. We understand that healing is not one-size-fits-all; it must be rooted in the client’s unique world and values.
