Registered Counsellor
Max Woods
Languages Spoken:
- English
I am a qualified counselor with over seven years of experience in promoting mental health, inclusion, and wellbeing. My approach is evidence-based, holistic, and client-centered, with a focus on empowering individuals to overcome stress, burnout, and personal challenges in order to live the lifestyle they want.
I hold degrees in Counseling, Psychology, and Education, which have provided me with a deep understanding of mental health, behavior change, and the science of goal setting and motivation. My specialisation lies in helping clients develop sustainable, realistic goals that align with their personal values and aspirations, fostering motivation through a tailored, step-by-step approach.
Throughout my career, I have worked across various settings, including educational institutions, private practice, and corporate environments. I support clients in navigating life transitions, building resilience, and achieving their personal and professional goals.
In my practice, I am passionate about fostering mental wellbeing through practical interventions, including stress management, burnout recovery, and personal growth. Whether working one-on-one or delivering group workshops, my goal is to create a supportive space for clients to reflect, grow, and thrive, providing the tools they need to stay motivated and on track.
Inspired by my postgraduate thesis on goal setting, health psychology and motivation, I also wrote Aligned: Reframing goals for passion, purpose and resilience.
