I specialize in Male counselling. Do you find you get moody, shut down and don't talk. Go into your grumpy bear cave and don't come out for a while. Do you find you flick between being logical and then illogical really loving then get offended if your partner rejects you and then you get angry. Then we need to talk. I will give you your first session at no charge. It is important we are a good fit. You need to know I know what it is like being a male and you can relate to me. I assist separated dads, help with Domestic Violence Orders, Family Separation and reunification.

We all need a little help at times. If you are struggling to cope with life's challenges and need help to uncover the way forward and lead a happier and more fulfilling life, I can help. If you need someone who will listen with compassion and without judgement, to support you in letting go of what is holding you back and find your true potential, I can help. If you are suffering from pain, past trauma or heartache, I can help.

We can meet the needs of both children, teens and adults with evidence based approaches in a safe environment where you feel heard. We currently have immediate availability for children and teens. Our Director created Nurturing Minds due to the need for a less clinical environment and more equality in the typical patient/expert dynamic. After-all, therapy is a collaborative process and the rapport you have with your Psychologist is the strongest predictor of treatment success.

I’m a registered Counsellor with a strong focus on men’s issues – supporting men through times of transitions, crises of meaning and mid-life issues. Men have particular struggles and experiences that I have gathered tools to help navigate and lighten. As a bloke, we still have a cultural expectation to cope, sort it out ourselves and just get on with it - but my experience is that challenges are much easier to face with a bit of support. The truth is, there are times in our life when things fall apart and we feel like we can’t hold it together any longer. It’s at these crunch times that we can deepen our experience of life.

Hello, it's nice to meet you here. If you are struggling with eating or body image issues, I can support you to find a way out. You may be stuck in cycles and patterns of behaviours with food that you know are not helpful but you can't find a way to make changes. You may be dissatisfied with your body and long to find some peace but don't know where to start. You may have had a difficult relationship with food for a long or short time and would love for this to no longer be an issue in your life. You may have previously accessed health services for your eating disorder or you may never spoken of these challenges to anyone.
