Dawie and Lyza – Faith-Based Counsellors

About Dawie and Lyza

Dawie and Lyza counselling journey began from a place of shared experience and profound healing. Having both faced personal trauma and battled depression, we understand the depths of emotional struggle. Rather than allowing these experiences to define us, we chose to use them as a foundation for growth and service. Through intentional study and training, we equipped ourselves with the tools necessary to support others facing emotional hardship.

For the past two years, we have worked together professionally as a counselling couple, providing faith-based support to individuals and families in need. Our approach is deeply rooted in compassion, empathy, and a shared belief that true healing comes not solely from human effort, but through divine intervention. Every story of breakthrough we witness is a reminder of God’s grace at work, and we remain humbled by the opportunity to walk alongside others in their healing journey.

Our Services

Couples Counselling

As a married couple, we bring a unique dynamic to relationship counselling. We understand the intricacies of maintaining a healthy partnership, especially when navigating trauma, communication barriers or past hurts. Our sessions create a safe and balanced environment where couples can explore their struggles, reconnect emotionally, and rediscover mutual respect and love.

Individual Counselling

We offer one-on-one sessions for those dealing with personal trauma, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Drawing from both professional training and lived experience, we help individuals unpack emotional pain and work towards clarity, acceptance, and purpose. Our faith-integrated model allows for both psychological insight and spiritual growth.

Faith-Based Support

Our work is rooted in Christian principles. While we welcome clients from all backgrounds, our practice reflects our belief in God’s ability to bring restoration and transformation. Scripture, prayer, and spiritual reflection are incorporated into sessions where appropriate, offering clients a holistic approach to healing.

Additional Information

What sets us apart is the deeply personal nature of our work. We don’t counsel from a distance—we counsel from a place of understanding. Our clients often tell us that they feel seen, heard, and truly supported.

Whether you’re facing emotional overwhelm, relational tension, or spiritual uncertainty, we are here to walk with you. Together, and with God’s guidance, there is hope. There is restoration. There is a way forward.
