Grief can deeply disrupt our sense of meaning and safety in the world—especially after sudden or traumatic loss—and when this becomes overwhelming or prolonged, compassionate therapeutic support can help.

If you or someone you love would benefit from grief counselling, I offer in-person and Telehealth sessions at the Bardon Counselling & Natural Therapies Centre.

桜梅桃李 (Oubaitori)
Meaning: This Japanese phrase refers to four types of trees—cherry (桜, sakura), plum (梅, ume), peach (桃, momo), and apricot (李, uri)—each of which produces distinct flowers and fruits. The concept behind oubaitori is that these trees do not compete or compare with one another; instead, they each bloom in their own unique way, symbolizing individuality, diversity and non-comparison.

十人十色 (Juunin Toiro)
Meaning: This phrase means "ten people, ten colors," signifying that everyone has their own preferences, characteristics, and way of being. More commonly used in Japanese culture, this phrase celebrates human diversity and acknowledges that everyone is unique.

Change doesn’t have to be overwhelming to be effective. I teach my clients that even the smallest shift in how we see ourselves or our lives can create powerful ripple effects over time.

Often, the beliefs we formed when we were younger quietly shape our decisions, reactions, and relationships as adults. Through counselling, I support my clients in gently adjusting these old lenses so new possibilities and healthier patterns can emerge.

Ageing is something many of us fear, but I see it as a privilege — another year lived, another year learned.

With decades of experience in health and wellbeing, he understands the ageing process deeply and uses this knowledge to support his clients with compassion and clarity.

Whether you’re navigating physical changes, emotional transitions, or simply wanting to age with more understanding, I offer guidance rooted in both science and lived wisdom.

Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that everything is connected, such as our emotions, our bodies, our thoughts, and the patterns we repeat in relationships.

Yin and yang show how two different ways of relating can either support each other or slip out of balance, creating tension and misunderstanding.

This philosophy deeply informs Michael’s approach to couples counselling. He helps partners recognise the patterns they fall into, one moving forward, the other pulling back, and supports them in finding steadier, more harmonious ways of communicating.

In every relationship, couples encounter points of difference — whether it is intimacy, communication, or parenting styles.

It is common to feel stuck, frustrated, or disconnected when these differences start to outweigh connection.

In counselling, I support couples to navigate these challenges, hear each other clearly, and find ways to reconnect. Together, we create space for understanding, growth, and closeness.

In my work with couples, I have learnt that meaningful change happens when both partners feel safe, supported, and understood.

The foundation of healthy communication is built on trust, warmth, and a shared commitment to connection.

When couples are guided to hear each other clearly, beyond defensiveness, they can explore difficult conversations with openness and confidence. This creates space for genuine understanding, growth, and closeness.
