Uri Bookman
Counsellor/Therapist, Trauma-Informed Relationship Counsellor, Therapeutic coach
Hi, I’m Uri Bookman — a therapist, registered clinical counsellor (PACFA 30041), and men’s work facilitator. For over a decade I’ve supported men in areas such as purpose, emotional expression, fatherhood, and relationships.
In our sessions, we’ll explore the challenges you face — whether it’s anger, stress, intimacy, or the weight of expectation — and uncover what’s possible when you bring more authenticity and presence to your life. Drawing on men’s work, shadow work, and emotional intelligence, I offer a safe, grounded space to grow.
If you’re ready to step into deeper strength and integrity, let’s connect.

Sudeva Hawkes
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, B.Couns., MNCPS Accred. , PACFA Reg.
Men often find it hard to talk about their "issues". Sudeva is skilled at supporting the delicate process of bringing what has long been hidden into the light. He has worked with Men's groups for over 15 years and honed his skills over that time. His aim is to help you find your own sense of direction in the company of a supportive ally, eliminating that which no longer serves you while developing new strengths.

Dabaco Doldissen
Counsellor/Therapist, GradDip Gestalt Therapy
Issues of masculinity, dating, isolation, friendships, loneliness, body image, sexual dysfunction... there are all sorts of pressures, difficulties and expectations that men experience. As a male therapist and counsellor I want to hold a confidential, supportive and compassionate space for men to open up about parts of their life that might not get any space to be shared or worked through elsewhere. Book a free 15 minute phone consult via my website to discuss more.

Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
The word “man” is often assumed to simply mean someone with a penis. Yet being a man is shaped by powerful social expectations about strength, success, sexuality, emotional control and relationships. These messages can feel restrictive, confusing or overwhelming — particularly if you don’t naturally fit the traditional script.
Many people with male bodies struggle silently with the pressure to “be a certain kind of man.” This can show up as anxiety, anger, shame, depression, sexual difficulties, relationship problems or a persistent sense of not feeling enough. Often, these struggles are not about weakness, but about trying to live within expectations that don’t truly fit.
I offer a respectful, non-judgmental space where you can explore your own experience of masculinity — separate from cultural pressure or rigid definitions. Together, we can examine the beliefs you’ve inherited, understand how they may be shaping your life, and support you in developing a more grounded, authentic and emotionally connected way of being.
You don’t have to carry the weight of expectation alone. Therapy can be a place to rediscover who you are — not who you’ve been told to be.
