Dr. Grace Mohapi-Mathabatha — warmly known to her patients and colleagues as Dr. Grace — is a dedicated psychiatrist with a deep passion for mental health awareness and education, her career is marked not only by her extensive academic training and clinical experience but also by her genuine commitment to improving the lives of those living with mental health challenges.
With over a decade of medical and psychiatric experience, Dr. Grace’s approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and respect for every individual’s unique journey. She strongly believes that mental wellness is not just the absence of illness, but the presence of support, understanding, and empowerment.
Dr. Grace is a vocal advocate for the de-stigmatization of mental illness and the promotion of mental well-being across all stages of life. She places a strong emphasis on psychoeducation — not just for her patients, but also for their families and caregivers. By helping people understand the nature of mental illness, its symptoms, and its treatment options, she equips them with the tools they need to manage challenges effectively and with dignity.
She believes that when families and support systems are educated, outcomes for patients improve significantly. This is why she takes the time to ensure that every person involved in a patient’s care journey is informed, empowered, and supported.

However, her special clinical interest lies in working with teenagers — a group she believes is often misunderstood and underserved in the mental health space.
Adolescence is a time of immense change, pressure, and emotional complexity. Dr. Grace offers a safe, non-judgmental space where teenagers can express themselves, explore their identities, and receive the mental health support they need to thrive.
Dr. Grace’s academic journey is both impressive and inspiring. She holds a:
