hi i'm matt
I’m an Australian-based ADR Certified Divorce Coach, and one of the few divorce coaches in the world working exclusively with men. I’ve been there myself, raising my three kids solo through my own divorce. Now, I help men who are struggling to move on from separation become the single-dads their kids need, navigate co-parenting with confidence, and build a new life they love. I don’t offer legal advice, just a practical strategy to turn pain into peace, heartbreak into healing, and grief into growth.
WHY I DO THIS WORK
Relationship breakdown is one of the highest risk factors for suicide among men (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2023a). And yet, male-specific divorce support is hard to find, with many separated men saying they feel isolated and left to face it alone. Men often experience frustration with the current solutions available to them and the fact that no one seems to truly understand the situation they are in.
This was my experience. When I was looking for support, I struggled to find another man who had both lived it and had the training to guide me. I kept finding professionals who hadn’t been through it themselves, or men who’d lived it but lacked the skills to support me.
I wanted to talk to a man who had both. But he didn’t exist.
That’s why I do this work now. I believe qualified peer-led support can be the difference between just surviving divorce, or using it as a launch pad to transform your life.
WHY I DO THIS WORK
Relationship breakdown is the most common risk factor for suicide among men (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2023a). Statistics show that separated men are 4.8 times more likely to die by suicide than married men and separated men under 35 years of age have nearly 9 times greater odds of suicide. And yet, male-specific divorce support is hard to find, with many separated men saying they feel isolated and left to face it alone.

Before working with Matt, I was drowning in stress. His coaching helped me set up a clear plan and communicate better with my ex. Now, I actually feel in control.

What you can expect when we work together
Separation isn’t just a legal event, it’s the unravelling of your life. The emotional overwhelm, learning how to communicate with your co-parent, and adapting to single parenting. All while managing your career, mediation, court hearings, and custody transfers.
It’s one of the hardest transitions you’ll ever face and the stress and overwhelm can lead to clouded judgment and reduced logical reasoning to solve problems and make good decisions. Having someone who can help you keep your head clear, your priorities straight, and your life on track is key to getting through it successfully and recovering faster.
My approach is practical, solution-focused, and child-centred.
Together, we’ll tailor a strategy that fits your situation and tackle the challenges that matter most to you.
