Hello, I am an experienced Clinical Psychotherapist, Counsellor, and Coach with a profound commitment to guiding individuals on their transformative journeys. Trained in the intricacies of Soul Centred Psychotherapy (SCP), a Jungian-based modality, I specialise in fostering a vital connection with the whole self. In the realm of SCP, I can orchestrate a delicate dance between the everyday sense of self and the myriad layers of consciousness. This therapeutic approach illuminates the internal dynamics that shape our thoughts, moods, and behaviours in both personal and interpersonal realms.

I support clients with a variety of presentations and referrals to enhance their overall lifestyle satisfaction and wellbeing. These range from anxiety and depressive symptoms, to self esteem and other more significantly deeply rooted psychological impairment, such as trauma. My clients are driven and motivated to create positive change in their lives by adopting proactive strategies, along with lowering their protective mechanisms to explore challenges which have had significant impacts on their wellbeing and functioning.

If you are not who you want to be, you can break down who you became by accident, and rebuild yourself as who you want to be on purpose. Living with ADHD can feel like you’re playing a different version of life. What works for others doesn’t always work for you, even when you're giving it your all. It’s not about trying harder; it’s about working differently, with support that understands how you tick. I founded T.H.E. Psyborg to give my ADHD and neurodivergent gamers a space to Thrive, Heal, and Evolve - safely and intentionally. (P.S. You don’t need to be a gamer to feel at home here, just someone looking for support that fits.)

As humans, we possess remarkable resilience, but we are also highly vulnerable. There are numerous factors that can affect our wellbeing, leading to feelings such as anxiety, sadness, hurt, guilt, anger, loneliness, disconnection, sense of unfulfillment, emptiness, etc. Sometimes painful memories from the past prevent us from fully embracing the present and building positive experiences. Often our own thoughts and beliefs work against us. Behaviours that were once soothing and comfortable, over time, become destructive. Coping with loss is often incredibly difficult. Unresolved arguments or conflicts can damage close relationships.

Hi, I'm Mick, a Registered Counsellor. More specifically, I am someone who sparks change in people's lives.

I have lived experience with Depression, PTSD and Anxiety, and in my experience, you can make significant changes in your life when you decide to. You will be amazed at how capable you are of exploring areas of yourself that you never knew existed, as the counselling process can allow you to heal and grow.
