Rob McClintock Counselling
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Dip Counselling ACA, Clinical Hypnotherapist ASCH,
Many men struggle in silence with depression, anxiety, addiction, anger, or relationship problems, feeling pressure to "man up" rather than seek help. Society often teaches us to suppress emotions, leading to isolation, self-medication, and destructive patterns that damage our relationships and well-being. As a man who has personally battled addiction, depression, and anxiety, I understand the unique challenges men face in acknowledging vulnerability and asking for support. My approach creates a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore your struggles without shame or pressure to conform to outdated masculine stereotypes. Using Subconscious Dynamics™, we address the deep-seated beliefs about masculinity, success, and emotional expression that may be limiting your growth. This work helps you develop authentic strength, emotional intelligence, and the tools to build meaningful relationships while maintaining your sense of identity as a man.

Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
I work with men navigating stress, anger, grief, relationship difficulties, fatherhood and expectations about providing or coping. Sessions offer a place to put concerns into words, understand recurring responses and develop practical ways to communicate and seek support. We can also explore how culture and family expectations shape these experiences.

Dimitri Hawa
Psychologist, Psychologist-BA, BPsycSc (Hons), GradDipProfPsych
Support for men's issues may encompass a journey through historical and contemporary ideals of masculinity. The belief is that the longstanding and still relevant notion that healthy males develop when positive role models are present to provide the emotional support and nurturing that is required to assist males to personally grow and develop. Therapy is designed (schema therapy methods, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic approaches, attachment approaches), fostering a healthy safe therapeutic alliance and tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs, to serve as a form of mentoring, aiding men in their emotional, spiritual, cognitive, psychological, and social development. This process includes learning how to navigate conflicts in a healthy manner, enhancing one's sense of self-worth and communication skills, and providing guidance for expressing emotions while managing problematic behaviors.
Call for a free consultation. Medicare rebated sessions (obtained from a GP called mental health care plan) and private health insurance rebates session available.
Dimitri's experience extends to conducting psychological assessments and offering counselling support to Victims of Crime through (VOCAT), clients associated with the Transport Accident Commission (TAC), Workcover clients, and those covered by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and has previously provided psychological support within prison settings.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Many men carry pressure to have it all together. To be the provider, the protector, the one who doesn't struggle, even when underneath, something feels off. If you're ready to stop carrying that alone, let's work together to help you find a healthier way forward.
The first step in working with men's issues is understanding that needing support isn't weakness, it's a sign of strength and self-awareness. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore the pressures, patterns, and expectations that have shaped how you show up in the world, and build a more authentic, sustainable way of being. My approach is direct, and focuses on accountability, self-compassion, and permission to be fully human.
You don't have to do this alone. Let's take the first step toward a life that feels more honest and whole.
