About Coach Elize
Who am I?
My name is Elize and I coach teens and tweens to cope with and manage everyday challenges in the transition from childhood to adulthood.
My Qualifications
I have a post-grad degree in Clinical Psychology, with 20+ years of adult life experience.
My Approach
Although I have a degree in Psychology, I prefer the non-rigid approach of coaching, rather than therapy/counselling. That way, my young clients feel like I am a mentor (rather than a 'doctor'), and I can adapt my coaching style to your individual child's needs.
How do sessions work?
I am based in Hillcrest, Durban, but can do online sessions with your child anywhere. I only do online sessions as 1. this takes pressure off a child, making the setting informal and they can do it where they are most relaxed, and 2. you don't have to drive around to have them come in.
My Rates
Initial 15 minute consults are free. Thereafter, I charge R950 per 50-minute session or save 20% if you take a package of ten 50-minute sessions at R7,600.
Coaching vs. Counselling
I prefer coaching young clients. If I do see, however, that there is a need for professional therapy I will advise you (the parent) of this and make suggestions.
