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.
