Jordan Du Toit

Jordan Du Toit Welcome! It’s lovely to have you here. I'm Jordan, a clinical psychologist based in Melville, JHB 🌻 Being human is a challenge for us all.

The journey of life is one of survival, joy, and intense moments of struggle. From those with more severe mental health challenges to those simply wanting to know the workings of their minds more intimately, psychotherapy is an incredible tool to facilitate your own healing and coping with life’s challenges. Part of the joy of therapy is that you and your therapist form an honest and trusting rela

tionship where you can be heard without judgment in a safe space. Many of us carry far too many struggles alone and a safe space can be all you need to overcome some of what you have been carrying alone. Starting therapy can be an anxiety-provoking journey but I hope you can make the jump to finding a space together to allow you the space to grow and heal. I work in a psychodynamic way, which means I focus on patterns in your life, how they may have come about, and how knowing more about them can help you to become aware and either accept these parts of yourself or become energised to find new ways of interacting with the world and yourself. You deserve to choose to work on yourself to find fulfillment and healing.

South Africaʼs Constitution protects people against unfair discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. That legal protection matters deeply. It does not mean every q***r South African feels safe being known.
A person may be legally protected while still fearing rejection at home, bullying at school, discrimination at work, exclusion from their faith community or violence in public. This contradiction can create a complicated emotional reality. You may feel grateful for the rights that exist while also grieving how unevenly safety is distributed. Both can be true.

But on a serious note, late diagnosis of neurodivergence is becoming even more common, particularly among women, gender minorities, and individuals with high masking abilities. And knowing when to come in for an evaluation is hard. 🌈 #

Q***rness is regularly described as foreign to Africa. The history is far more complicated than that claim allows.

Africa has never had one culture, one belief system or one way of understanding gender and intimacy. It would be inaccurate to romanticise every precolonial society as universally accepting. It is equally inaccurate to claim that q***r people did not exist until Western influence arrived.

Many laws still used to criminalise same-sex intimacy were introduced through European colonial rule. Those laws survived independence in numerous countries and continue to shape people’s safety, dignity and access to care.

As a white South African practitioner, my role is not to speak over q***r African voices or present myself as the authority on these histories. It is to challenge harmful misinformation, keep learning, and direct attention towards the African activists, researchers and organisations doing this work.

Q***r Africans have always belonged to Africa.

Sometimes it comes out, and I like to think it makes me more relatable to my patients. 😆

The way we phrase things in our minds quietly shapes how we feel about them.

Reframing isn’t about toxic positivity or pretending everything is fine. It’s about creating just enough space to respond differently.

It’s a small shift, but over time, it can change how you experience your entire day and even how you see yourself.
