Lize has been an Occupational Therapist for over 16 years, but her journey began much earlier — at the age of seven — when she had the privilege of working alongside an OT to overcome her own challenges. That early experience planted a seed that has only grown stronger, fueling her passion to support others and meet the needs of her community.
Lize is the founding Director of Building Blocks Therapy, a family-owned paediatric Occupational Therapy clinic with a big heart and a clear purpose: to support families and empower children to thrive. She is passionate about helping children develop the skills they need to fully participate in their communities — understanding that this looks different for every child and family. She believes every child deserves the chance to chase their dreams, no matter the obstacles they face.
Her journey as Director has also led her to grow and nurture an incredible team of therapists. This has fueled not only her passion for the community but also her deep commitment to the profession of Occupational Therapy. Lize is driven to invest in the career pathways of each team member, creating opportunities for them to develop, lead, and make their own positive impact. Mentoring and supporting the next generation of therapists is something she sees as both a privilege and part of her lasting legacy.
In everything she does, Lize is intentional about creating spaces and strategies that are affirming and inclusive of all individuals. She believes our role as therapists and community members is to live in a way that builds understanding and inclusivity, helping our broader community grow in their knowledge of how we can work together to support one another.
Lize knows that families show great courage in inviting therapists into their lives and sharing their vulnerability. She is honoured to be part of that journey and believes that with the right team of people around them, every family can experience hope, joy and confidence.
Her heart lies not only in supporting children but in equipping, encouraging, and empowering parents, caregivers, and siblings. She believes therapy is about so much more than developing skills — it’s about creating safe, playful, and positive environments where families feel supported and connected.
Lize has a deep passion for walking alongside families on the journey of parenthood. She knows that raising children is one of life’s most important and challenging roles — and that it truly takes a village. Her dream is for Building Blocks Therapy to be a place of hope in the community, where families feel loved, supported, and empowered to raise children who will grow up with courage, purpose, and connection.
As Founder and Director, Lize leads an incredible team of passionate professionals who share this mission. Her vision is for Building Blocks to be a family-friendly space where there is no judgement — only care, collaboration, and a commitment to working alongside families and other healthcare professionals to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Outside of her professional role, Lize is a proud wife to Sean and a mum to three beautiful children — Kayleb, Malachi, and Isla. Together as a family, they extend their heart for community even further by fostering children, creating a safe, loving environment where each child can flourish and thrive.
