Mr Glyn Hupalo, M.Couns

Registered Professional Counselor

“Hi, I’m Glyn. I work with individuals, teens, and families to navigate life’s challenges and build stronger connections. I help teens manage school pressures, identity struggles, and emotional expression, while supporting parents in understanding and connecting with their teens.”

About Me

Hi, I’m Glyn. I work with individuals, teens, and families, helping them navigate life’s challenges. My focus is on building stronger connections. For teens, I offer a safe space to manage school pressures, explore identity, and express emotions freely. I also support parents in truly understanding their teens. We can strengthen family communication, fostering deeper bonds and lasting resilience.

Approach

I start with small, practical steps that help you and your teen notice what matters and choose actions that reflect your values. In my Sydney clinic and online sessions we move at a steady, collaborative pace — short experiments in mindfulness, gentle behavioural practice between meetings, and clear check-ins that fit busy family life and relocation rhythms. I pay close attention to cultural context and school pressures while helping parents and adolescents try new ways of talking and relating. Those seeking practical, values-focused change often find this way of working helpful.
