Counselling for Life's Challenges
People come to counselling for many reasons: anxiety, low mood, grief, relationship difficulties, life changes, addictive patterns, difficult past experiences, or simply a desire to understand themselves more fully.
I provide compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-informed online counselling tailored to your needs, circumstances, and goals.

PACFA-registered counsellor
Associate Program Coordinator and Lecturer in counselling
Hi, I’m Mark Holdsworth, a PACFA-registered counsellor and lecturer in counselling. I hold a Master of Counselling and have professional experience across mental health, addiction, trauma, education, and community wellbeing.
I offer general counselling across a wide range of emotional, behavioural, and relational concerns. Within this broader work, I have particular clinical experience in trauma and complex trauma, addiction and compulsive behaviours, and men’s body image and embodied experiences. My practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming.
My approach is integrative, compassionate, and collaborative. Rather than applying the same method to every person, I draw from different evidence-informed therapeutic approaches according to your needs, preferences, and goals.
Counselling can provide space to understand what is happening, recognise patterns, strengthen your ways of coping, and consider changes that feel meaningful to you.
