Our Male Counselling Services Available

Depression

Periods of depression can be normal in the lives of complex humans. If these feelings are impacting your ability to function, maintain a relationship, go to work or leave the house, then it may be time to reach out for professional men’s counselling.

Anxiety

Anxiety is a weight many men carry, but we often feel we shouldn’t speak up. From societal pressures to personal challenges, anxiety impacts how we live our lives. Recognising the signs and triggers is the first step for ongoing management. We offer a safe space where men can talk freely about their emotions and learn coping strategies to regain control.

Anger Management

If you’ve found yourself getting angry or using abusive and violent behaviours towards your loved ones and want to become a more respectful and trustworthy man, consider leaning on someone who knows how to help.

Sex and Sexuality

The world is changing, and people are finally starting to feel more secure around sex and sexual exploration. Whether you’re seeking self-love, self-awareness and/or self-expression, our wellbeing and counselling services help men celebrate and honour their sexuality, freeing them from any personal or societal shame and stigma they may feel.

Fatherhood and Parenting

There are few greater life changes than becoming a parent. Many men receive little guidance or support in that transition. We know you want to be the best father you can possibly be, and offer a conversation to help you overcome any challenges thrown your way.

Relationships and Dating

Whether you’ve been through a difficult breakup, getting back into dating after a long time, or need support to work through a current relationship, we can help. With mentored counselling, we support men to clarify and reconnect with their unique needs, putting them on the fast track to relationship success.

 

MEN SUPPORTING EACH OTHER: MENTAL HEALTH & COUNSELLING SERVICES

Society often dictates that men should be stoic, unemotional, and self-reliant, leaving the concept of prioritising your well-being or seeking men’s counselling stigmatised and overlooked.  

The truth is, counselling for men is not only about addressing specific mental health issues, but also about fostering a deeper understanding of oneself, processing emotions in a healthy way, and learning essential life skills to navigate the complexities of modern living.  

Men, just like everyone else, encounter unique challenges—whether it's related to relationships, work, fatherhood, or personal identity. These challenges can lead to feelings of isolation, frustration, or confusion, particularly when they feel they have no avenue to express or process them.  

Engaging with male psychologists or therapists in a non-judgemental environment where men support each other, you can openly discuss your concerns, gain clarity, and acquire tools to build resilience and well-being. By addressing these needs, male counselling services won’t just work to treat symptoms; they cultivate personal growth, strengthen relationships, and enhance overall quality of life.

Strong Space Counselling offers dedicated therapy for men where understanding and improvement start with a conversation. If you or someone you know identifies with these sentiments, consider counselling as a proactive step toward personal empowerment and a balanced, fulfilling life.

 

Overcoming Stigma & Prejudice with Men’s Coaching and Counselling Services

Feel like you’ve tried everything and now don’t know what else to do?

Have you considered talking to someone for a while?

Maybe you’ve never been to men’s counselling, or you’ve had a bad experience in the past. Perhaps, like so many others, you were taught speaking to someone about your struggles makes you weak or incapable.

 It is not uncommon to feel overwhelmed by life, alongside a sense of frustration and confusion about how your feelings, relationship or life has turned out. You might regularly find yourself thinking:

  • “No one else struggles with what I struggle with, there must be something wrong with me.”

  • “I’m trying so hard, but nothing seems to work or change.”

  • “There are days where it’s hard enough just putting one foot in front of the other.”

  • “Everyone would be better off without me.”

  • “No one cares about how hard I’m trying.”

  • “My anger is out of control. It’s like a switch has flicked and I can’t fix it.”

  • “I love these kids, but I’m exhausted, I don’t know how to give them the best of me.”

  • “I love my partner, but if I told them what I truly liked or wanted, they’d leave me.”

Sound familiar?

Men put so much time and effort into behaviours they’ve been taught are right, only to find out later how harmful they are to their mental health.

We’re sold the myth that if we work hard and give the people in our lives everything they’ve got, it will make us happy. Moreover, it is our ability to provide that makes us worthy and valuable.

In reality, all this does is build resentment and contempt towards not only the system, but their families and friends – the people they so desperately want to love and who they want to love them back.

This resentment and contempt keep men from a deep connection with themselves and the communities they unknowingly crave.

At Strong Space, we believe you deserve everything you want in life; love, connection and joy.

Instead of achieving this by working harder or doing more, we help men slow down and reconnect with their own needs and desires.

Stronger starts now.

Why choose Strong Space for a male mental health therapist?

EXPERIENCED, RELATABLE AND TRANSPARENT

Strong Space is passionate about supporting the courageous blokes who put their hands up and ask for support.

We approach men’s counselling services with a relatable, supportive and challenging, aiming to get guys out of their comfort zone and thinking differently about their lives in a safe space. We help men talk freely about their emotions and reconnect with the internal resources they might not know they have so that they can live a stronger and more aligned life.

 There are so few specialised men’s mental health services in Australia. Those that do exist are so busy and have extensive waitlists, leaving men feeling overwhelmed by life without support for months, placing their well-being at serious risk. The team at Strong Space see the need for these services. We support men who want online counselling and therapy, so the brick-and-mortar community agencies can see the guys needing that service the most.

Why choose online sessions for your mentored counselling?

CONVENIENT, SAFE AND RELIABLE

When seeking professional help for personal issues, more and more men are turning to online telehealth counselling. Online counselling and psychotherapy give you your precious time back. Traditional, in-person therapy will always have its place, but it can be awkward, inconvenient and disruptive to your life.

At Strong Space, we believe your time matters. No more getting stuck in traffic, running late, or being without a way to get to your sessions. Men can call and have a real, effective conversation from the comfort of their own home, on a lunch break at work or even when travelling on holidays. No matter where you are or what you’re doing, Strong Space Counselling will be there to support you.

 We understand the process of working with a men’s coach & counsellor can be daunting

I have rebuilt my personal life entirely thanks to Matt and have managed to tackle difficult situations at work. He gave me the honest answers I needed. I see now that there is a time and a place for certain conversations and to let things die down before having them. Now, when a topic is heated, I tend to tread water rather than go head first into more issues. Matt is excellent at what he does and he has really helped me see things in a different light. I owe him a lot.
