As a counsellor, I believe we can flourish when we view adversity through a growth lens. I believe that by using DBT coaching techniques, we can all overcome the challenges in our lives. I enjoy supporting couples by helping them improve their communication, reframing conflict with strategies and tools to allow for connection, and focusing on repairing well when a rupture has taken place.

I offer a space where you can meet yourself with kindness and curiosity. Many of us carry experiences of shame, self-judgement, grief, or a general sense of dissatisfaction. At the same time, there is often a deep longing to live a fulfilling and authentic life, and to experience meaningful connection with others.
In my practice, I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and relationship challenges. Others come to counselling with a desire to better understand themselves and to grow into a fuller, more aligned version of who they are.
Whatever brings you here, you are welcome.

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

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re trying to balance personal growth, relationships, career decisions, and emotional wellbeing. Many of my clients are professionals, leaders, and everyday people who are doing their best but feel stuck, uncertain, or disconnected from what truly matters. I help you pause, reflect, and reset without pressure or judgment. Whether you're navigating career transitions, burnout, relationship challenges, or self-doubt, our work together is about clarity, emotional resilience, and realistic next steps. This isn’t about fixing you. You’re not broken. It’s about creating space for you to be yourself.

My psychotherapeutic stance is accepting and judgment-free. The therapeutic relationship is essential in effective therapy. Based on this, it is crucially important to get to know my clients on a personal level, and for my clients to get to know me. I position myself alongside my clients to collaboratively formulate a focused treatment plan.

Drama therapy is an embodied practice that is active and experiential. I have a person-centred approach: radical acceptance, unconditional positive regard with a non-directive stance. I strive to work with the healthy resilience of the individual or group, creating a sense of safety in the present so that personal challenges can be explored in a contained way. Whilst creativity is the foundation for curiosity and expression, the sessions are client led focusing on their preferred mode of expression. The work (with children and adults) is trauma informed and diversity sensitive. Restoring and encouraging agency is ever present

Life presents us all with challenges. You may be entering a new phase in your life. You may see repeated patterns that negatively impact you, your work and your relationships. Perhaps global crises have left you contemplating your identity and seeking meaning and purpose in your place in the world. You wish to make sense of the intersectional influences of belief, race, class or other systems and the accompanying feelings these evoke. However much (or little) you desire a change or a fresh perspective on life, it's natural to want someone to help you navigate the discomfort and achieve your goals.

Individuals who are willing to explore their experiences and thoughts to optimally navigate life's challenges will benefit from counselling. Being able to identify what it is you want to change or improve is essential to feeling "better" and in control.

Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure why life feels harder than it seems to for others. They may be navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, neurodivergence, emotional regulation difficulties, self-esteem challenges, relationship concerns, or major life transitions. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, providing a warm, supportive space to better understand themselves, make sense of their experiences, build practical coping strategies, and move forward with greater confidence, self-awareness, and resilience.

ARE YOU FEELING OVER WHELMED BY LIFE CHALLENGES? ARE CONFLICTS WITHIN IN YOUR FAMILY UNIT CAUSING YOU TO FEEL DSYREGULATED AND POWERLESS? I work in a collaborative manner with my clients to build their mental immunity by developing skills and coping mechanisms to assist them to navigate a more effective path through life obstacles. I offer affordable and accessible rates, which fill the gap in the mental health space. I have been married for 28 years and have 3 young adult daughters, and have therefore had both the personal, and counselling experience of maintaining healthy and functional family interactions.

I see therapy as a genuine human encounter—one that goes beyond roles or techniques. I aim to be fully present in the room, bringing my whole self into the work, rather than performing as a distant expert.
In my view, the most meaningful therapeutic work happens when both of us are able to show up as real people. Within that kind of relationship, deeper understanding, emotional clarity, and lasting change can occur.
My work is insight-oriented, helping you to understand not only what you are feeling, but why—tracing patterns, meanings, and experiences across the life course.

My approach is down-to-earth and collaborative and I value the therapeutic relationship as a tool for meaningful change.

Therapy can offer a space to pause, reflect, and make sense of experiences that feel overwhelming or hard to understand. I work psychodynamically and offering a safe, containing, and non-judgmental therapeutic space. My approach is grounded in curiosity about the inner world, unconscious patterns, and relational experiences that shape how clients understand themselves and engage with others. I also integrate mindfulness and meditation where appropriate to support emotional regulation and reflective capacity.
