Privacy

Confidentiality is a core part of psychological ethics. Everything you say stays between you and your counsellor, except in rare situations where safety is at risk (e.g. imminent harm to yourself or others). We explain our Privacy policy before we begin.

Beginning your counselling journey

You don't need a referral from your doctor to attend counselling at men'sspace.

In the first session we’ll talk about the reason you've sought counselling, discuss goals and answer any questions. You decide what you’re comfortable sharing. Sessions are conversational and solution‑oriented, there’s no judgment or pressure.

The number of sessions you may need varies; some clients benefit from short‑term, goal‑focused work while others prefer ongoing support. We’ll discuss a plan that fits your needs.

Meet Your Counsellor

After years of working with men from diverse backgrounds, I saw how stigma and outdated ideas of masculinity stop many men from seeking help. I founded Men’s Space to create the environment I wished existed: friendly, down‑to‑earth and focused on positive action.

I am a fully qualified member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA). Born and raised in Sydney, I bring over 40 years of life experience in the areas of relationship and separation support, fatherhood, LGBTQI+ specific issues, anxiety and depression, motivational and decision making assistance.
‍
As a male counsellor providing specialised mental health support for other men, I understand and can relate to the challenges faced by men in current times.
‍
My professional approach uses “Person-Centred” therapy, as a basis for support, this means you, the client, are the expert in your own life to lead the conversation and find your own solutions. My training includes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), amongst other proven treatment approaches.

Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, fatherhood stress or identity questions, I’ll meet you with empathy, support, and real‑world tools. Together we’ll define what strength means for you and build a life that feels authentic.
