Welcome — I’m Frans B van Zijl, a registered counsellor offering compassionate, confidential support in my private practice based at Wellness on Van Buuren, 50 Van Buuren Road, Bedfordview, 2007.
I work with adults and adolescents navigating a wide range of challenges including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, grief, life transitions, and self-esteem. My approach is warm, client-centered, and grounded in evidence-based modalities.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply in need of a safe space to talk, my goal is to help you feel heard and supported as we work together toward insight, healing, and meaningful change. I believe counselling should be a collaborative process, where you are met with empathy, respect, and curiosity—not judgment.
