I've spent twelve years on the front line of community services. I've worked as a drug and alcohol counsellor. I've supported people rebuilding their lives after prison. I've spent years working with children, adolescents and families under strain. I’ve worked with many couples on the brink of separation. And I've facilitated around a thousand men's behaviour change group sessions — thousands of hours in rooms with men working through anger, relationships and accountability, many of whom walked in convinced that counselling had nothing to offer them.
That kind of work teaches you things that you can’t learn in a textbook.
I don't run everyone through the same program. Some people need practical tools and a clear plan; others need to go deeper into what's underneath. Usually it's both, we get you some steadiness first, then work on what's been driving things.
Above all, it's plain and down-to-earth. No jargon or being talked down to — just useful, honest conversations.
There aren't many male counsellors around, and for a lot of men it's simply easier to talk things through with another bloke — someone who won't judge them or turn it into something it isn't. Whatever you're carrying, there's a good chance I've sat with something like it before. Don't worry, you won't shock me, and you won't need to soften it.
