Guys...if stress, anxiety, or addiction has you feeling stuck, unmotivated, or lost...you’re not alone. I get how hard it can be to reach out—especially when opening up to mates or family feels too close to home. It’s easy to push through, hoping things will change—but often that only makes things harder. You don’t have to figure this out alone. Whether you need addiction counselling or support for life’s challenges, I’m here to help. Real change and a better future is within reach—one where you feel more in control, more like yourself again. I’m here to walk that path with you. If you're ready , let’s talk.

I’ve focused my considerable lived experience with men’s mental health, addiction and grief & loss into my counselling. In a space where you are validated and listened to, free from judgement, we can explore what is happening in your life and work together to set goals. Importantly, we can also rediscover and nurture your inner resources and strengths.

I am warm, empathic and understanding - who is also an exceptional listener! If today might be your day to connect with someone who will walk with you on your journey toward a positive, engaging future, I welcome a chat with you. If you’d like to start right now, I encourage you to visit my website where you can book your session through my client portal.
