Adrian’s teaching begins.

Adrian created an 8-week mindfulness meditation course in 2010 to help people calm their minds. The course covered managing emotions and understanding irrational beliefs. It was offered continuously in various parts of Sydney and interstate for five years. Adrian also delivered a mindfulness training program for a government organization, aiding over five hundred participants in stress management. It became clear that each student had unique concerns needing individual attention.

More learning undertaken.

During this time, Adrian obtained his Diploma in Counselling (CHC51015). Noticing more clients with anger issues, he quickly helped them manage their stress. Adrian then specialized in anger and stress management. Adrian recognized society’s struggles with anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. He has adapted his business to help more people cope with these pressures.

“By helping people manage stress and change their beliefs, we can reduce emotional problems like anger, anxiety, depression, self-harm, and relationship issues.”

Adrian’s Approach to Counselling

Adrian is a empathetic, understanding counsellor and life coach who truly wants to help individuals and couples get back on the road to happiness.

Adrian offers confidential, professional, and empowering services. He focuses on addressing current concerns by modifying beliefs and behaviours without delving into the past. Adrian uses Rational Emotive, Cognitive Behavioural, Solution Focused, Matrix, Logo therapies, Neurolinguistic Programming, and hypnosis to help build a better you.

Real solutions for real people.

“I have observed that in past sessions with psychologists or counsellors, I often left feeling that I was the one who came up with suggestions for addressing my concerns. It seemed that no advice was offered. Additionally, many clients have shared similar experiences.”

It is true that mental health practitioners are trained not to offer solutions but to help clients find their own answers. But unfortunately, many clients miss the subtle nudges from the practitioner.

Do your homework

Adrian ensures that his clients leave each session with a clear plan of action and a list of tasks to complete. He diligently follows up with them between visits to ensure they remain on track and committed to their goals.

What our clients say

I feel centred and empowered after several sessions of talking with Adrian. He has a very practical approach and the techniques he employs are deceptively simple.

He helps you to understand how your narratives and expectations can be contributing to the negative emotions that overpower you. He encourages you and gives you tools to take responsibility for your life. My relationships have improved and the problems I had sleeping are almost completely gone. My life feels much more optimistic, and I …

When I reached out to Adrian I was in need of some assistance with managing stress and anxiety levels related to work. Adrian worked with me to incorporate new techniques to assist with understanding and controlling my feelings and also working on ways to be responsive rather than reactive to difficult situations that arise. I would highly recommend working with Adrian if you need some assistance or guidance with day to day life.

Had a session with Adrian to learn relaxation techniques to help with sleeping issues. The technique is simple but works really well. Adrian also suggested daily affirmations which help to lift up my spirit. Thanks Adrian!

Adrian has changed the way I think and behave on a daily basis. He has been patient in listening to and understanding problems I’ve had not just with anger & frustration but with communication and socialisation with others. Empathising with how I feel in these situations and offering different solutions or tools I can use to help me navigate my relationships with friends, family and colleagues. Even if you just want someone to talk to, I would highly recommend Adrian.

Shauna D

Adrian’s meditation and mindfulness techniques are very effective if your goal is to become the better version of yourself. Since I started practising the mindfulness techniques that Adrian taught, I realised there is plenty of space in our mind that are otherwise occupied with random thoughts. The techniques would definitely help one become more mindful and conscious even while performing their day to day activities. It is like you start doing everything with a purpose! I strongly recommend Adrian if you are looking to develop your inner self.

I have had an ongoing health issue that I have not been able to shift. Being a yoga teacher, I knew that I needed to tap into the power of the mind to help heal my body. Adrian designed a specific meditation practice using a variety of techniques to help with my health issue which I now practice daily. Although I am not back to 100% health yet I am already starting to see a change in the way I feel, both mentally & physically. Thank you Adrian.

We were fortunate to have Adrian lead a session on Mindfulness at one of our Lunch’n’Learns. I was amazed at the benefit that I, and others, received from the relaxation, breathing and concentration exercises that Adrian led us through. I can happily report some immediate physical and mental benefits following the session and would recommend a Mindfulness program for any corporate event.

Adrian teaches powerful meditation techniques that can be easily implemented amongst the responsibilities and challenges we all face today. These techniques can help anyone substantially improve their concentration and emotional intelligence, which can extend to better personal and professional relationships and enhanced work-related productivity. Another key benefit of these techniques is stress reduction, which can help to prevent and remedy psychological and physiological diseases and greatly enhance one’s sense of well-being. I recommend Adrian’s courses highly.
