Talking therapy about anxiety, stress, overwhelm and depression.

Hey, this is Mike ! 

I'm a Mental Health Advocate and accredited Therapist and Counselling Practitioner, specialising in several helping modalities and modern applied psychology frameworks designed to explore self-awareness, thoughts and behaviours and help people better deal with their emotional issues.

With many years of lived experience dealing with unhelpful emotional behavioural issues, coping with work related stress and social anxiety - I still don't have it all together. But who does ? Nobody is ever a perfect human, least of all your counsellor !    

During a long career in global, corporate and small business I've worked with a lot of different people, in many different places. This has driven my interest in identifying unhelpful behaviours and the making the necessary changes that lead to better mental health, wellbeing and high performance in our workplaces. I'm a service-focussed professional, ambassador, helper and community volunteer with a real interest in people. Being a qualified trainer & facilitator in the Education sector, I've developed a solution-based methodology in teaching formal qualifications and facilitating workplace training. 

Naturally, I'm a promoter and driver of effective, genuine and safe workplace culture, inclusive leadership management, confidence in communication, change management, process improvement and business strategy.  

Life On  Mars ? specialise in counselling therapy to address emotional issues, personal development to make changes and improvements and corporate training that provide new skills and develops people.  

Perhaps you just need someone to talk to? Let's discover if there really is Life on Mars ? You're only ever just one decision away from making change in your life... but we can talk about that later. 

Cheers, 

Mike
