I am an integrative psychotherapist / counsellor with more than 10 years experience in helping individuals find the path to themselves by supporting them in their journey of challenging their barriers and processing their struggles, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma / complex trauma, childhood abuse / sexual abuse, self-confidence/ self-worth, family/relational issues, low motivation, and attention difficulties. I further have a good deal of experience working with neuro-divergent clients, particularly with women who have been undiagnosed / late diagnosed with ASD / Asperger's. My career has also taken me to different countries, and as such, I have experience in working with culturally and ethnically diverse clientele.
I am passionate about valuing humanness, and enabling people to reach their full potential, and as such, the foundation of my work with clients rests on the development of the therapeutic relationship and is grounded in the Person-Centered approach. However, I equally value and respect the difference in all of us, and believe the best way to work with you is to be informed by your uniqueness and the uniqueness of your situation and experiences. As such, I work integratively by drawing on my training in Psychodynamic, CBT, and Family/Systems and psychosexual approaches to tailor my approach to you and your needs.
Additional areas of focus: LGBT, Family conflicts, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Anger management, Career difficulties, Depression, Compassion fatigue, Abandonment, Attachment issues, Autism and Asperger Syndrome, Communication problems, First Responder Issues, HIV / AIDS, Isolation / loneliness, Multicultural Concerns, Sexual Assault and Abuse, Young Adult Issues
Clinical approaches: Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Liesel Greyling. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Liesel has been a great therapist, she is kind but also direct which helped me to take responsibility and to keep working on myself. She quickly understands the causes behind a problematic behaviour when I cannot find them and helped me solve them.

I'm still early in my journey, but Liesel has treated me with respect, care and understanding, listened without judgement and offered incredibly helpful insights into the issues I am seeking help with. I would thoroughly recommend Liesel to anyone, particularly if they are looking to address similar issues to me.

Liesel is fabulous, she put me at ease from the first time we met and has helped so much already.
Liesel is changing my life and helping me with my aim to address my mental health so I don’t wake up in 25 years and realise I have missed out on valuable years as I have worried so much.
