Catalyst has multiple meanings in a variety of contexts. In Chemistry, a catalyst is a substance that creates a chemical change. For individuals or groups, a catalytic person would be somebody that precipitates or is the stimulus for change. Catalyst Counselling stands for creating and being the impetus for change.
Catalyst Counselling is a practice that is driven to providing relief to individuals from their past experiences, assist with improving your current functioning, overall wellbeing and to identify an ideal version of yourself by enabling the attainment of future goals and ideal self.

Hi, I am Michael, Owner, and Principal Counsellor at Catalyst Counselling.
Born in Broken Hill, I moved to Adelaide at 13 and enlisted in the Australian Army at 17. After 8 years’ service, I have travelled across Australia and have lived in multiple towns before returning home in 2012. Since that time, I have worked in the local community helping individuals and families seeking positive outcomes and a reduction from their current stressors.
With a background in mechanical engineering and most recently, counselling and psychology, I bring over a decade of experience from various government and non-government roles and have helped 100's of people improve their wellbeing and quality of life.
My approach is based on evidence, blending client-centred, solution-focused, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy methods to tailor solutions to your unique experiences.
My passion lies in guiding others towards transformation. I am committed to helping you reduce life's friction, discover exciting new perspectives, and find your greater purpose. Witnessing your breakthroughs and growth is what fuels my passion.
I first became interested in mental health and in particular men's mental health during my service with the Australian Army. It was during deployment that I was presented with unique experiences to see the drivers of the human condition with my fellow soldiers. I saw firsthand the impact on soldiers and their loved ones when struggling with personal and professional challenges. I left the Army proud of what I had achieved and dedicated to learning more about healing trauma.
Catalyst Counselling offers individual sessions for Adolescents and Adults both face-to-face in Broken Hill and online, serving clients nationally. You can expect a service that supplies a simple framework to inherently complex issues for effective and efficient interventions. You can also expect an empathetic approach to you as an individual who is greater than your presentation.
I look forward to becoming a part of your journey of transformation, healing, and personal growth.
