Mrs Liezl Avenant

Licensed Psychologist

“Well-experienced psychologist working with children, adolescents as well as adults.”

About Me

I provide a warm, professional space for children, adolescents, and adults. As a well-experienced licensed psychologist, I understand the distinct needs of each age group. My aim is to help you navigate life’s challenges, fostering growth and resilience. We will collaboratively explore practical strategies, finding tools that fit your unique situation. This comprehensive approach means I can support individuals through various life stages. I also assist different family members in finding their way forward.

Approach

I shape sessions to each person's rhythm, blending gentle support with clear goal‑setting so progress feels steady. In Bloemfontein I meet clients in person, offering sessions in Afrikaans or English and tailoring appointments to school or family schedules. Assessment information guides focused work: short, practical exercises, developmental attention for young children, and collaborative planning with caregivers between meetings. Those seeking steady, practical change—individuals, parents and adolescents—often find this approach helpful.
