About me

Hi, I’m Samantha Naidoo

HPCSA Registered Counsellor

I am an HPCSA Registered Counsellor in private practice, dedicated to providing ethical, compassionate, and evidence-based mental health care. I am also an Associate at Psychologists Centurion, where I collaborate within a multidisciplinary team to support individuals, focusing on mental wellness across the lifespan.

In addition to my private practice, I am the Founder of Mosaic Minds Neuro Tribe, a specialised wellness hub where I serve as a Neurofeedback Practitioner. Through our signature Braingain Neurofeedback program, I work with clients to improve cognitive performance, emotional regulation, and mental agility by training the brain to function more efficiently.

A safe, supportive space for your unique journey.

My approach is person-centred, trauma-informed and integrative. I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches, tailoring support to your individual needs, goals and life context.

Together, we explore your thoughts, emotions, behaviours and patterns, while developing practical tools to support greater emotional regulation, self-awareness, resilience and meaningful change.

My journey

A passion for people and mental wellness.

My journey towards psychology was shaped by both professional experience and a deep personal interest in understanding people. Before entering the field of psychology, I spent 12 years in the telecommunications and corporate environment, including senior operational and management roles. These years taught me valuable lessons about people, leadership, pressure, relationships, resilience and the many different ways people navigate change.

Over time, I realised that my deepest sense of purpose lay in supporting people on a more personal level. That led me into psychology and, ultimately, into private practice.

Today, I bring together my professional experience, psychological training and continued professional development to create a space where you can feel heard, understood and empowered to make meaningful change.

Continuing to evolve

Learning, growth and meaningful impact.

My continued training and professional development include trauma-informed approaches, BWRT®, DBT-informed skills, neurofeedback and developmentally appropriate, creative therapeutic techniques for working with children and adolescents.

I believe that being a good practitioner means remaining curious, reflective and open to learning — continually finding new ways to understand, support and connect with each person’s unique experience.

My own evolution as a practitioner is part of the work.
