Psychotherapist, BA Psch, Grad Dip Coun & Psychotherapy, Adv DDP

Daniel’s client list is currently FULL and he is unable to take on any new clients.

Daniel’s approach to life as well as therapy has evolved from his experiences having grown up in three countries. Although no struggle is the same between one individual and another, he believes we share a common pain that is both deep and universal, despite the circumstances. His purpose is to support anyone who seeks strength and courage, not only to survive hurt and fear but also to thrive and find joy so that everyone can learn to grow in power, love and a sound mind.

Daniel works with a therapy dog called Chip whose hair does not shed. Please let Daniel know in advance if anyone attending counselling is afraid of or allergic to dogs.

Hi, I’m Phillip — a PACFA-registered counsellor dedicated to walking alongside people through life’s challenges with empathy, care, and authenticity. I currently work as a School Counsellor at a Christian school, supporting students as they navigate relational, and mental health concerns. Before this, I served as a Pastoral Care Worker, offering emotional and spiritual support to young people and their families.

My counselling approach is person-centred and holistic. I believe in creating a safe, respectful space where individuals feel heard, valued, and empowered to grow. I’m passionate about helping people build self-awareness, resilience, and a renewed sense of hope.

Having faced my own mental health challenges, I bring a deep understanding and compassion to my work. These experiences allow me to journey with clients in a grounded and patient way. Born in the Philippines and raised in Australia, I also have insight into the cultural dynamics many clients face, particularly around identity, family expectations, and belonging.

Outside of counselling, you’ll often find me connecting with my church community or enjoying a game of basketball with friends. No matter the setting, my heart is to help people feel seen, supported, and equipped to thrive.

If you feel I might be a good fit to support you or someone you care about, please feel free to get in touch — I’d be honoured to walk with you.
