Online Counselling for Western Cape
Providing individual counselling for children of any age is my main focus. I also provide counselling for adults struggling with grief, trauma, non-clinical depression and anxiety, and daily life challenges. "Trauma is personal. It doesn’t disappear if it’s not validated. When ignored or invalidated, the silent screams continue internally, heard only by the one held captive. When someone enters the pain and hears the screams, healing can begin," - Danielle Bernick. Allow me to take your hand on this healing journey and help you regain your inner peace.

I am patient-centered. The clients I see suffer from mood disorders (including Bipolar Disorder), marital issues, problems related to adolescence, anxiety disorders, and bereavement issues. Basically, all the mental health problems people endure. I have been a psychologist for nearly 30 years and have experienced my own pain - but most importantly - I overcame it and therefore I can assist clients to confront their fears and come to a solution how to live a fulfilled life. I also do life coaching with people who have neurodiversity issues.

The Individuals that feel as though no-one will understand or who have been told time and time again that they are the ones at fault, either in their relationships or at work. The individuals who feel alone and who cannot speak out due to hidden manipulation and control within a home or who are insidiously abused within a relationship. The individuals who feel that they are the ones who have destroyed their families lives, the individuals who want a safe space, a listening ear and supportive dialogue. The individual who wants clarity of mind, effective coping mechanisms and understanding, these are the individuals I counsel.

Counselling is my life purpose. Whilst working in Corporate Human Resources, I engaged many who had mental health challenges, felt misunderstood & lacked support in their environment. I have empathised, listened to & supported those who shared their concerns, dreams & challenges with me esp. when they were not experiencing fulfillment at work. Helping clients to find their true life purpose may reduce symptoms relating to mental health & bring about change that will impact individuals, their families & communities. Other interests include: End of Life, Dementia, Carers Support, GBV, Toxic Relationships, Dealing with Change.

Build to Strength was birthed in a very sensitive time in Cape Town, South Africa; where its citizens didn’t only face a physical health challenge, but in its enormity it was apparent to Janine Liedeman, the head counsellor and founder that her academic foundation had to marry her passion to help many battling with emotional wellbeing. It was then that her practice was opened, in 2020 to help individuals, couples, and families alike to manage the ever-demanding changes and effects of a balanced life by journeying with people and companies equipping them with tools to function in what otherwise be overwhelming stress and dysfunction

On the brink of a new permanent relationship and wondering: how do I make this work? Already married but struggling, or experiencing the trauma of divorce? Want to love again but now there are children to consider in the new marriage you are entering into?

It is often hard for us to acknowledge when our usual way of coping no longer feels enough. Someone once said; ‘Asking for help is not a sign of weakness, it is wisdom’ (author unknown). As a registered counsellor I can journey with you to explore your current life challenges. I am passionate, dedicated and committed to the process of healing that the counselling space can offer. My approach is warm, non-judgmental and person-centred. I will offer you emotional support alongside psycho-education about mental wellbeing, whatever your circumstances or stage of life.

I am available for in-person and online appointments from Monday to Friday.
If you are seeking a Counsellor, then you may be feeling anxious and overwhelmed by your life circumstances. A crisis can threaten your emotional or physical well-being and can interfere with the functioning of your daily living. Events such as unplanned pregnancies, relationship breakdowns, illnesses such as COVID and other traumatic and life-threatening experiences can all be navigated and strategic interventions implemented. Putting a voice to your feelings often puts thoughts and emotions into perspective and is the start of healing an overwhelmed spirit.

I work with a diverse range of clients, all of whom, carry their own unique story and life experience. The common theme connecting them to my way of working is a clear desire to let go of the limitations of the past and embrace the wonderful possibilities of change in the present.

Clients have different needs that they would seek assistance with from a competent professional. The client needs to be heard and their feelings validated. I provide a safe and confidential space for clients 14 years old and above to engage with me. My specialist Counselling knowledge and approach will put the client at ease and allow the therapy to take its course. I acknowledge that each individual requires different levels of support and based on that, I apply my technique of empathetic listening and appropriate counselling as required.

I offer relationship and family therapy. The reasons that the clients have come to me is to try and repair their relationships, either due to unresolved issues, the total breakdown in communication. Sometimes, after years of being together have forgotten how to voice their needs, and have given up trying to have them satisfied. Other times families seek help trying to navigate life with teenagers. I have also worked with individuals who are seeking some direction, purpose and meaning in their lives. People come for therapy as they are aware that they could be living a more optimal life, are exploring and evaluating their lives.
