Read moreMichael came to study psychology as a mature age student, completing his studies part-time in Melbourne at Swinburne and Victoria University during the ’80s and ’90s. He believes that coaching, counselling or psychotherapy needs to be tailored to each individual. This has led him to develop skills in a number of different approaches over his twenty years in practice.
Growing up in a Victorian country town in the middle of the twentieth century, he experienced both the State and Catholic school systems before serving as an officer in the Royal Australian Navy during the Vietnam era.
He has worked in manufacturing, in sales, in retail as a business proprietor, in academia, HR, business administration, and has also spent many years on-site as a construction worker. This wide experience, combined with his light-hearted and often direct manner, has given him the ability to communicate with people of all ages and at all levels.
Although Michael sees equal numbers of men and women, he specialises in men, couples and communication between individuals. He is divorced with two grown-up children.
As a psychologist based in Carlton, Michael provides a range of services to clients from across the northern suburbs of Melbourne including psychotherapy, marriage and couples counselling, life coaching, general counselling services and more.
