You Don’t Need to Have it All Figured Out. You Just Need Somewhere Honest to Start
Counseling for Men, Couples, Teens, and Individuals Navigating Life in Hong Kong
Maybe you've been telling yourself you're fine.
Holding it together at work. Showing up for your family. Keeping the wheels turning. But something feels off.
You're more irritable than you used to be. Your relationship has gone quiet. You're drinking more, sleeping less, or just going through the motions.
Maybe it's deeper than that. A loss of purpose you can't quite name. The sense that the life you've built doesn't fit the person you've become.
Or maybe it's your teenager. Withdrawing. Acting out. Caught between cultures and expectations they didn't choose.
If any of that sounds familiar, you're in the right place.
What I Help With
Men's Mental Health
Most men weren't taught how to talk about what they carry. I create space where you don't have to perform or explain yourself. Just show up.
Individual Counseling
One-to-one work with adults navigating life transitions, work stress, identity questions, expat adjustment, and the patterns that keep people stuck. Direct, warm, grounded.
Couples Counseling
When connection fades, it doesn't mean love is gone. It means something needs attention. Gottman-informed work for couples wanting to rebuild communication, trust, and connection. I work with all couples: married, unmarried, same-sex, multicultural.
Hi, I’m Max.
I'm a counselor based in Hong Kong. I work with men, couples, teens, and individuals who are ready to stop going through the motions and start building something that actually fits.
Before I became a counselor, I spent over a decade in biotech and business. I've lived with the pressure of high performance. I've sat across from expat life and its particular brand of isolation.
I know what it's like to rebuild your sense of purpose from scratch.
Therapy with me is direct, warm, and grounded. I'm not going to nod along and say nothing. I'm going to meet you where you are and help you figure out what's actually going on.
