    About

    Marilize is passionate about supporting individuals on their journey of personal growth, both emotionally and spiritually. I believe the most helpful counselling relationship is a collaborative one. I specialise in working with adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse, loss and grief, premarital and marriage counselling, interpersonal and social relationships, lack of purpose, finding your true identity, dealing with everyday life, and management of anxiety and depression. I provide a non-judgmental and convenient space for my clients and help them untangle and find themselves again.
