Jessica Rice, Clinical Psychologist Claimed

I have a specialist, MA( Neuropsychology) (Wits) degree, which allows me to provide specialist neuropsychological assessment of patients that have suffered neurological injury/insult, including traumatic brain injuries, stroke, tumours, dementia, and other neurological diseases for the purposes of assessments and therapy. I also provide psychoeducation, as well as specialist neuropsychological rehabilitation. Also, I am a registered Clinical Psychologist, having undergone training in the assessment, understanding, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of severe psychopathology, personality disorders, and serious psychological distress. I formulate my patients psychodynamically, and I typically provide CBT, DBT, psychodynamic, or supportive psychotherapy.

My MA(Neuropsychology) (Wits) degree allows me to perform this highly specialised work for people experiencing neuropathology, including traumatic brain injuries, stroke, tumours, dementia and other neurological diseases/deficits. I have also worked for six years in a Neuropsychology practice, performing clinical, medico-legal and insurance/disability assessments, writing the relevant reports and providing treatment for neurological conditions for both in- and out-patients, as well as psychoeducation on brain injury/disease for patients and their families. This gives me practical experience in clinical and forensic work.
