Mrs Lize (vd Walt) Pawson
Counseling Psychologist
““You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending” - C.S Lewis. Change can be a beautiful and scary process – no matter your age, your past, or your present. Self-development is a continuous journey of trial and error.”
About Me
I guide individuals through life transitions, helping them embrace change as a path to growth. With an MA in Counseling Psychology and a PhD pending, I offer a supportive space for self-discovery and skill-building. My approach helps clients navigate personal challenges and build resilience. Sessions focus on practical strategies to transform past experiences into a stronger future.
Approach
Healing often feels like stepping into unfamiliar territory; I help you map small, achievable shifts so the next chapter unfolds with more choice and steadiness. Sessions — in Bloemfontein or online, in Afrikaans or English — move at your pace, alternating gentle tracking of memory with short, practical exercises to anchor the body and mind. Between meetings I offer brief, focused tasks to practise new responses and build confidence. People juggling transitions, trauma echoes or burnout often find this steady, hands-on rhythm helpful.
