Steven Strang is the Founder and Counsellor at Cascade Counselling, providing confidential support to professionals, individuals and families navigating addiction, executive burnout, mental health challenges and significant life transitions.
Drawing on more than 20 years of executive leadership experience across Australia and New Zealand, Steven brings a practical understanding of the pressures associated with leadership, responsibility, performance and organisational change. His corporate background, combined with formal counselling training, allows him to work effectively with clients experiencing chronic stress, burnout, alcohol and other drug concerns, relationship difficulties and the emotional impact these challenges can have on individuals and families.
Steven has also worked within the alcohol and other drug sector, supporting people affected by substance use and recovery while recognising the broader impact addiction can have on partners, parents and loved ones. His approach is grounded, non-judgemental and collaborative, with an emphasis on helping clients develop practical strategies that support meaningful and sustainable change.
He has a particular interest in the psychology behind executive performance, recognising that high-functioning professionals often experience distress that remains hidden behind outward success. His work also extends to supporting individuals through major life transitions, including career disruption, identity change, family conflict and recovery.
Steven holds a Diploma of Counselling, a Diploma of Mental Health, a Master of Management and is a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (GAICD). He is a registered member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and is committed to ongoing professional development and ethical, client-centred practice.
Through Cascade Counselling, Steven aims to provide a calm, practical and supportive environment where clients can explore challenges openly, strengthen resilience and move towards lasting personal and professional wellbeing.
