Liizl specializes in assessing and rendering therapy for children, adolescents and adults.
Liizl believes that clients have the innate ability to heal and grow into all that they can be. Humans are too complex to be labelled and it is therefore important to address the client from a holistic point of view or frame of reference. Liizl therefore aims to incorporate the psychological, physiological and social aspects of the client in providing assessment and therapeutic services.

Adults: Assessment and Therapy

Adults can present with a variety of concerns when they consult the practice. Presenting problems are in many cases not the real problem, but the manifestation and symptomatic behaviour of what lies unresolved in the psyche of the client. Psychotherapy is a process where clients work through their concerns or “blockages" towards psychological growth and healing.
Liizl collaborates with the client, working toward an integrated healing process, thus not dispensing advice on healing problems, but rather facilitating the healing process for the client.
