Most people just want to be happy. While that can certainly be achieved through counselling, I believe happiness is an emotion, like others, that comes and goes. Instead I work with you to create more peace, joy and fulfilment in your life. These are deeper long-lasting goals that are the foundation of life satisfaction. Over and above the specific concern you wish to work on, I aim to help you connect with who you really are as a person and facilitate the path to who you would like to be.

Michael is an intelligent and thoughtful observer with a clear thinking approach – he is an astute listener and a natural admirer of the mind. He is curious to understand why people act as they do and his interventions in the consulting room are vibrant and creative. We are not always aware of the whys and wherefores of our actions, of what motivates us to feel or behave a certain way. Shedding light on your unconscious fears and desires may enable you to understand yourself better and in doing so, take greater responsibility for the changes you want to make. Michael offers brief and long-term work to couples and individuals.

Therapy can be a very daunting journey. People often fear entering into a therapy process as they know it will be difficult to face their emotional pain and suffering. I understand how scary this can be and one of my big aims for therapy is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where you can develop the confidence and motivation you need to face these struggles in your life. I offer clients the space to accept and grow from their difficulties and to build resources for difficulties they may face in the future.

Sometimes the hardest step is not healing, it is reaching out. You may have been carrying the weight of your struggles quietly for months/ even years. Perhaps your relationship feels distant, filled with unresolved conflict. Maybe you are lying awake at night replaying conversations, worrying about your child’s behaviour, grieving a loss that still feels raw or battling trauma that refuses to loosen its grip. You might be exhausted from work-related stress, overwhelmed by emotional pressure, or silently fighting thoughts you are afraid to share with anyone. The truth is, you do not have to reach a breaking point to deserve support.

As a psychodynamic therapist, I aim to help you grow by examining not only your current struggles but how they are anchored in the unconscious dynamics, patterns, and conflicts that guide how you shape your life. My personal philosophy is rooted in the phrase umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu ('a person is a person through other persons'). I believe that we have all been shaped by our relationships, and that the therapeutic relationship itself is a powerful mechanism for changing who you are. Feeling seen and appreciated by another human is crucial for our mental wellbeing - yet too often, our struggles feel invisible to those around us.

Are you facing challenges related to your sexuality or life in general? Sexuality is a deeply personal and authentic aspect of our identity, rooted in our heritage, values, and individual experiences. It encompasses our gender roles, sexual orientation, intimacy, pleasure, and even the legacy of how we connect with ourselves and others. Life, too, with its highs and lows, from career struggles to financial stress, addiction, and more, can challenge our sense of self and sustainability.

With nearly two decades of experience, I support people navigating life transitions, grief, identity questions, and complex emotional terrain. Growth is rarely linear. It asks us to face loss, uncertainty, and change while discovering who we are becoming. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where your story is taken seriously. Drawing on creative arts, narrative practice, and spiritual reflection where appropriate, I help you make sense of your experience, reconnect with your strengths, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, coherent, and truly your own.

My belief is that every person is strong, resilient, and can make meaning out of their circumstances. However, we all need support and guidance along the way. I value accompanying my clients on their journeys by building genuine and trusting relationships that foster growth, self-exploration, and healing. “Growth occurs when individuals confront problems, struggle to master them, and through that struggle develop new aspects of their skills, capacities, and views about life” – Carl Rogers.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
As a man, why might I want to see a male therapist?
There are many reasons a man might wish to work with a male therapist, including a degree of shared identity, which may help client and therapist connect to each other and allow for a more free-flowing discussion of issues that can be deeply personal. Some men may feel more comfortable talking to a male therapist about relationship concerns, the pressures they feel around the roles society and family place on men, career or job challenges, self-esteem, or anger problems. For some men who have not had a male role models in their lives, a good male therapist may be especially helpful.

How can I find out about a therapist’s experience treating men?
Individuals looking for treatment should feel comfortable directly asking a therapist about their history treating men overall and the issues that arise in therapy with men. A good therapist will be happy to discuss such matters as well as their educational background, approach to treatment, and how they think they can aid a prospective client.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.

Would a male therapist have specific training in treating men?
Generally, no. There are no certifications for treating men specifically, but there are continuing education classes that therapists may take that focus on treating men as a group. There are many therapists who focus on men and male issues in their treatment and therefore have experience and expertise in this domain.
