Find support that actually makes sense for your life.
our approach
listen
honest conversations, not theory
After 40 years in business and researching with over 2,000 people, I know the value of truly listening.
My approach starts with understanding what's actually happening in your world - work pressures, relationship challenges, the weight you're carrying that no one else sees.
I don't rush to solutions or stick to rigid frameworks. We explore what you're comfortable sharing, at your pace. Sometimes the most important insights come from what you're not saying as much as what you are.
connect
spotting the patterns that matter
Drawing from my human-centred background, I help you see the connections between different areas of your life.
How work stress shows up at home. Why certain situations trigger particular reactions. The patterns that served you once but might be holding you back now.
This isn't about analysing everything to death - it's about understanding yourself well enough to make different choices. We look at both your external world (relationships, work, responsibilities) and your internal world (thoughts, reactions, the stories you tell yourself).
clarify
seeing what actually works for you
I blend evidence-based approaches - Internal Family Systems (IFS), Gestalt therapy principles, and mindfulness practices with practical strategies that fit your real life.
The goal isn't endless sessions. It's helping you develop the tools and insights to handle challenges independently. You want to feel more grounded, make clearer decisions, and have better relationships - not become dependent on therapy.
We focus on sustainable change that sticks, even when life gets complicated, because you possess greater clarity about what is going on and why.
our mission
Our mission is to help you make sense of what you're experiencing, feel less alone in your struggles and discover your own strength to navigate life's challenges.
"I'd been putting off talking to someone for months - you know how as a bloke, you feel like you’re supposed to have it all sorted. Damian gets that. No judgment, no making me feel like I should have figured this out years ago. Straight talk about what was actually going on with work stress and how it was affecting everything else. Left feeling like I had practical tools I could actually use, not just theory."
