“I am profoundly grateful for the support and guidance Lara van der Post has provided me during one of the most challenging periods of my life. After my divorce in 2012, I struggled with depression and sought help from a psychologist for seven years with little progress. When my medical aid was depleted due to COVID-19, I began utilizing the free assistance offered by Lara through my workplace, a service I had previously kept private.
In just six months of working with Lara , I experienced a remarkable turnaround in my mental health. For the past two years, I have felt like my old self again, a transformation I attribute entirely to Lara’s expertise and dedication. Unlike my previous experience, where it seemed my psychologist was more focused on extending treatment for financial gain, Lara’s genuine care and effective approach made a real difference.
I am deeply thankful to Lara for her invaluable support and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of compassionate and effective therapy.”
