Dr. Daleen de Lange

Specialist Psychiatrist

M.D. (Marburg, Germany)Specialist Psychiatrist (PZN Wiesloch, Germany)

I am passionate about mental health and about every visiting individual with his/her own needs within a unique personal context. I believe in working ethically and professionally, without losing the human touch. I am a specialist in psychiatric disorders. You are the specialist in being you. Together we'll find a solution that suits you best.

How I work

I set aside one hour for your first consultation. This allows enough time for you to speak, for me to listen and for us to develop a treatment plan that is acceptable for you. This might involve routine diagnostics, medication, and referrals to other members of the mental health multi-professional team.

Follow-ups are scheduled during which we assess what worked well, what needs more attention and adjust the treatment plan if necessary. Should you have been referred by a fellow colleague you will receive a short report - this ensures that everyone is on the same page.

I am fluent in Afrikaans, English and German.

What and where I trained

I completed my basic medical degree at the Philipps University in Marburg, Germany. The international exposure allowed me to enjoy state-of-the-art training and mentorship for seven years.

After graduating, I completed a two year internship at Windhoek Central Hospital and Katutura State Hospital. Subsequently, I worked as a general practitioner in Windhoek and Otjiwarongo for approximately eight years.

In order to specialize in Psychiatry I returned to Germany and completed my specialist training at the Psychiatric Centre Nordbaden in Wiesloch.

The five year course included a year of training in the field of Neurology, since a number of psychiatric and neurological diseases overlap.

In addition to the standard registrar training program, I enrolled for and completed a three year course on cognitive behavioral therapy.
