Men's Issues
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.

Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
You may be carrying more than you let others see, trying to work things out on your own while feeling stuck, disconnected or simply not like yourself anymore. Perhaps you've lost confidence, direction or a sense of who you are. I specialise in Men's Mental Health, helping you make sense of what's happening, gain clarity and work towards greater confidence, resilience, purpose and direction.

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.
