"We feel so grateful to have found Lachlan during a time of need.  He helped my husband and I individually become more self aware, and also provided guidance with how to understand each other better.  He related to both of us, which made it so easy!  Thank you for your support, highly recommend" - Tori and John, Gold  Coast 

​

"Amazing.  At first I didn't think anything would help.  But working with Lachlan the last couple of months has really shown the pair of us a new light, and it's like we have begun dating again, and completely turned our relationship around.  I couldn't recommend couples counselling enough. It it worth it!  If you're wanting to save your relationship then do this.  Lachlan has been so supportive of both of us.  Single sessions and joint sessions work" - Jasmine and Tyson, Victoria

​

"My husband and I were at the point in our relationship where we felt marriage counselling was our last option.  After our very first session we instantly felt a sense of hope and we look forward to each session with Lachlan.  He has been extremely understanding and we feel comfortable expressing ourselves and coming to him with sensitive subjects.  We wish we came to Lachlan a lot sooner, the advice and guidance he has given us has worked wonders"  Micaela and Mitchell, Melbourne

​

"Lachlan helped save our marriage.  We came into therapy not knowing what to expect, but we are incredibly thankful we did. Lachlan was warm and welcoming and felt like a mate we could talk to.  He gave us tools that we were lacking and supported us both.  Our relationship has been the healthiest it has ever been and we truly wouldn't have gotten there without Lachlan.  Thank you so much again!!" Judy and Vincent, Sydney

"Working with Lachlan gave us the tools we needed to work through what we struggled with. We knew where we were, and where we needed to get to, he somehow made it clear to us how to get there. It was as if he had been watching us for years, he picked our personalities, identified our strengths and weaknesses and used that to guide us. I would 110% recommend him to anyone." Leif, North Queensland 

​

"Lachlan is engaging, actively listens and has an easy going nature making it easy to build a rapore. It shows he is very dedicated and passionate about his role." Lisa, Port Macquarie

​

"Lachlan was very helpful, understanding and is great at what he does. He is a good listener. Very open and put us at ease." Sally and Mick, Mount Gambier SA 

​

"I reached out to Lachlan at a point where I genuinely believed my partner had had enough and our relationship was heading in the wrong direction. Looking back now, I can honestly say that thanks to Lachlan, we are still together today. One of the things I appreciated most was his ability to help us see things from each other's perspective. As a male, I found it difficult to open up and express how I was feeling, but Lachlan created an environment where I felt comfortable enough to do so. Even though I was the one who made the initial call, he made it clear from the beginning that we were both in this together. He never took sides and always remained impartial. Lachlan tells it how it is. He is incredibly knowledgeable, knows how to get to the root cause of issues, and doesn't waste time with unnecessary fluff or sugar-coating. His honest and practical approach helped us have conversations we probably wouldn't have had otherwise. Lachlan has been fantastic, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. For anyone out there looking for someone who genuinely cares, listens, and wants to help, Lachlan is your guy. Thank you, Lachlan. We are incredibly grateful for your support." Chris, Brisbane

​

"Lachlan is exactly what we needed to get our communication back on track. Cannot recommend him highly enough. His approach is so reassuring, and everything he said was spot on. He helped us in only a few sessions and we are so grateful." Claire, Townsville

​

"Lachlan honestly saved our relationship. We are so grateful for him helping us. My partner and I were in a repeated cycle of conflict and were feeling really defeated. What seemed so complex for us to understand, Lachlan managed to simplify and help us to completely change how we communicate with each other. Now we are able to discuss pretty much any topic or concern and not have a stressful argument. We tried a different counsellor a couple of years ago and only wish we’d found Lachlan back then as it would have saved us some heart ache. We highly recommend Lachlan (so much so we referred our friends), and found online video sessions worked really well." Jessica, Adelaide

​

"Our approach to relationship counselling with Lachlan was very open and we wanted to understand ourselves, each other, and each others attachment styles better. Within a few sessions, Lachlan helped us grow as individuals and also as a couple. He helped us recognise tendencies within ourselves and each other. Lachlan offered us quality and practical advice that we were able to utilise to strengthen and deepen our relationship. We were able to expedite our relationship, understand and move through obstacles much more efficiently. Lachlan is personable, relatable, easy to communicate with, responsive and professional. We recommend Lachlan for anyone wanting to strengthen and better understand their relationship with themselves and each other." Lucy and Peter, Canberra

He has an ability to give strategies to assist in communication and being able to see each others side while also allowing each of us to feel heard and understood.

He catered to both of our needs and very flexible schedules to ensure we both felt supported and safe to open up." Michael, Perth WA

Emily, South Australia

​

"Lachlan is an amazing therapist. He has a gift for blending the right amount of directness with compassion and his strong foundation of experience and knowledge as a therapist helped us grow and connect as a couple in ways we didn’t expect.

"Since working with Lachlan, our relationship with ourselves and with each other has become so much better and has so much support and understanding. Being able to understand how we both are independently through the help of Lachlan, it has become a lot easier to communicate in our relationship. Thanks Lachlan" Sahara, Brisbane

​

"I sourced Lachlan on line as I had removed myself from the family home after 29 years of marriage with my husband Alex. After getting to know us individually and digging deep on our history growing up, family dynamics, attachments and communication styles and ongoing issues unresolved for many years Lachlan allowed us to have many ' light bulb moments' , called us both out when our actions or communication where seen to be inappropriate or contusive to communication kindly. Lachlan encouraged us to be accountable to participate and complete work on ourselves and with each other. Lachlan named the elephant in the room a number of times giving food for thought on what motivates us, what has stopped us from moving forward, how stuck we are and areas repeatedly unresolved that have caused resentment and much distance between Alex and I. Lachlan reiterated for us future focus and how to be better friends if not partners. Thankyou for listening!" Sonia Grimas, NSW

Since working with him my relationship has felt better than ever before and has helped me find amazing tools to make these changes sustainable and permanent. I couldn’t recommend anyone more amazing than Lachlan!" Chloe, Victoria

"My partner and I reached out to Lachlan a few months ago to work through some relationship issues we had. Hands down Lachlan has help us put in some effective strategies to assist in our issues. Lachlan was always professional and approachable in his sessions. He also was happy to shuffle around his time to fit us in when we required more immediate sessions. I would highly recommend Lachlan anytime. Thanks heaps !" Zoe C, Perth

​

"My partner and I were having major issue's which didn't seem resolvable. I was about to leave the relationship. Lachlan was able to bring some clarity to both of us to see there was more going on than what we thought was the case. Without Lachlan's help I believe we would have separated. Now we are back on each other's team and feeling positive about the future together. For anyone who has a partner who suggests they don't need relationship counselling. Keep persisting, as it's so worth it! A highly recommend Lachlan to any couple." Jennifer Lowis, Brisbane

​

"My husband and I found Lachlan really easygoing in assisting us with some marital issues. Really flexible, easy to talk to and all relative. My husband is fifo and Lachlan was very accomodating with working with our schedule. After some mediation work with Lachlan through single and couple sessions, we are now better understanding of each others needs, communication and navigating our way through any ebbs and flows that arise. Highly recommend Lachlan who is non biased, easygoing and an insightfully wise marriage counsellor all round." Michelle, Cairns Qld

​

"My wife initiated the relationship counselling and I was initially a bit hesitant to participate as I struggled to share my feelings with people. I’m so glad I pushed through that because I learnt so many valuable things from Lachlan (so did my wife) which really helped us get back on track. Lachlan was amazing to talk to. I felt comfortable very quickly from when I did the first session. We highly recommend him." Connor, Margaret River WA

​

"My husband and I had sessions with Lachlan because I'd struggled for years from the sudden death of my parent, and started to experience menopause too, which both impacted our relationship. Lachlan offered me what I really needed regarding feeling heard and understood. Not only did Lachlan help me to support myself more and learn about my husbands needs, but taught my husband new relationship skills including understanding and supporting me more too. Our communication has improved immensely. Lachlan is exceptional at what he offers couples." Jennifer, Canberra

​

"Lachlans approach is unlike anyone else my wife and I have ever seen. He was very compassionate and understanding and dove deep into finding out what the real core issues were so that we could deal with it at the root instead of just the surface level, and to also help each of us understand the other better. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough!" Jamie, Sydney

​

"Lachlan is a very understanding, compassionate and kind person, he helped me through a very tough time and allowed me express freely without any judgment, he made me feel so at ease and he builds a relationship of trust and feeling safe. I would highly recommend anyone seeking therapy as an individual or couple, he allows you to explore your own emotions, gives insight and gives you the confidence to grow and reach your goals as couple or individuals. Once again I highly recommend Lachlan." Cindy, Brisbane

​

"Don’t look any further if you’re wanting the highest quality relationship support! If I could give a higher score for Lachlan I would! My wife and I truly thought our relationship was over, and somehow Lachlan resurrected it through educating us on tools that are really quite simple." Penrith, NSW

​

"I initially enquired with a couple of relationship counsellors but was so glad I chose Lachlan as he went far beyond my expectations for getting support for my partner and I. Lachlan has a a non imposing caring approach where he helped us to understand why we were stuck going in circles with our communication. My partner and I constantly felt misunderstood by each other. We'd get gridlocked in conversations or arguments which we both felt terrible about afterwards. Once Lachlan taught us about our attachment styles and why we had them, this changed a lot! We are now in a much healthier committed relationship because of Lachlan's help." Justine, Nowra 

​

"I strongly recommend Lachlan and am very grateful to have met him. He provided some very practical and helpful insights. I consider him to be a genuinely nice bloke who makes you feel very relaxed whilst being extremely professional and knowledgeable." Matt, Gold Coast

​

"Lachlan is so easy to talk to and very personable. He’s helped me and my husband immensely. My husband and I have understood more about each other that I don’t think we would’ve known without Lachlan’s help. Lachlan has given us the tools to recognise and tackle issues that arise and to deal with them in the most effective way, which we’re so grateful for. My husband and I are so glad we found Lachlan to help us in making our relationship the best it can be. We cannot speak highly enough of Lachlan." Toni and Matt, Sunshine Coast

​

"Lachlan was great to deal with for both me and my partner. He made our counselling very smooth and helped us understand a lot more about ourselves and impacts of our past on our relationship. Would recommend." Hayden, Perth

​

"I found Lachlan comfortable talking to from the get go, he had a good vibe which was non judgemental. He used humour and made if feel like the conversation was normal, this was partially helpful for my partner. This created a safe feeling place to express what was going on and we could easily work towards our goal. I found that the way Lachlan taught us about ourselves to be clear and understanding making simple changes could be easy. He 100% saved our relationship and we have been much better for talking to him. If you're a little worried about starting the process of talking to a random then just give it a go, you won't regret it. Thank you Lachlan." Katey, Brisbane

​

"Myself and my boyfriend cannot recommend Lachlan more. The insights he is able to uncover throughout the sessions are so in-depth and well thought out, they always lead to profound realisations for us. Lachlan has helped both myself and boyfriend personally, helping us understand our true nature and role within the relationship. He works with us to understand our past trauma and helps us to show up in ways that reflect the people we would like to come. If you want to super charge yourself and your relationship, seriously look no further 😊" Alicia, Melbourne 

​

"It’s been great working with Lachlan. His insight, knowledge and personal experience are invaluable. I’m very thankful for all he’s done for me and highly recommend him." Tammie, Sydney 

​

"I had relationship counselling because my husband had issue's with drugs which was affecting our marriage, and I had developed depression. Lachlan developed our understanding with our challenges and offered us practical strategies to make the changes required. I'm really glad we found Lachlan as he was a lot better than a psychologist I'd previously seen." Katie, Sydney 

​

"Lachlan was an amazing help for my wife and I who were going through regular conflict challenges, with a blended family and one of us going through a loss of work for a year. Before having sessions with Lachlan we were regularly confused as we couldn't understand whether it was one of us specifically or both of us who were contributing to the issue's, but Lachlan shed a light on everything in an empathetic honest approach where we realised we both needed to make some changes. We have experienced previous marriage/relationship counsellors but Lachlan far exceeded them for many reasons." Derek, Adelaide

​

"Lachlan is one of the most sensitive and honest individuals I have ever met. His feedback and insight are intuitive and purposeful. Having accessed multiple counselling services previously, I credit Lachlan’s effectiveness to a well-developed methodology that combines multiple ideologies. Lachlan speaks from the soul and is a supporter as well as a mentor. I believe his life experiences maximised my counselling experience.  He helped me open up my thinking and showed me how to find the answers within myself. The result has been that I can profoundly understand myself and others which is enabling a sense of peace and purpose in life. Regarding online counseling, I wasn’t confident I could connect with a therapist when not in the same room, but I gave it a shot. It’s comfortable and convenient, but more importantly it has been highly effective. I have high level of confidence in Lachlan’s skills. I refer friends with the confidence of knowing that they’ll be receiving effective and purposeful therapy whether they are beginners of personal development or further along the journey." Anna, Melbourne 

​

"My partner and I were really struggling with what to do with some challenges in our relationship. Having some sessions with Lachlan really opened our minds up to what healthy relationships look like, and that challenges we thought were the end of the world, were actually pretty easy to fix."
