More about Heath
- 24 years' experience
- Male
- ACA
I am credentialed in Australia with 24 years of professional work experience. I have vast experience aligning with clients in response to the impacts of stress and anxiety, relationship issues & parenting issues. I specialise in responding to the experiences and impacts of trauma, abuse and violence, without fear of rehashing details of painful (horrendous) experience.
I also specialise in working with those who have used violence against loved ones and wish to address relationship abuses.
I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts, feelings and actions can be shared reflectively, without fear of shame, blame or personal deficit. This work must feel relational for those who engage with me, and i commit to an authentic connection, care and interest in your story and experience.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, but from the initial contact, the barriers that have held us back should begin to reduce immediately.
The modes of therapeutic intervention i draw upon in our work together will usually support the feeling and capacity for movement within the first couple of meetings, and moving forwards.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
