Hi I’m Mike. I am a men’s coach, relationship therapist, mindfulness facilitator, blogger and a podcaster. I live a stone’s throw from the beach with my family and when I’m not in the playground, I love composing music and swimming in the river at Brunswick Heads.

I support men, couples, spiritual seekers and entrepreneurs. My speciality is in holding a space of deep presence and compassion, uncovering a clear perspective based on inner wisdom and emphatically encouraging people to live from their own strengths and values. Somatic processing, meditation, breathwork, journaling, self experiments and self reflection.

Whether you're facing personal struggles, relationship issues, or want to be more successful, I'm here to help you find the clarity and solutions you seek. Your well-being is important, and I am dedicated to helping you achieve your goals and find peace. Please know that reaching out is a courageous step, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.

I predominantly specialise in coaching men to embody conscious masculinity and counselling couples to strengthen emotional safety and connection. However, I successfully support all genders and presentations. The way I do this is by providing a space of loving presence and guiding you through meditation, breathwork, journaling, somatic experiencing and self-inquiry.

All of the work that I do is founded on my 20 years of experience with mindfulness. When I am in session with you I am holding a space of loving presence and at the same time looking for cues as to what you are needing and asking for on four different levels - Spiritual, Psychological, Emotional and Physical. This will guide which processes and homework I will suggest for you.
