Michael Holker, MSW, RSW, is the compassionate heart behind Becoming Yourself Counselling. Discovering his own neurodivergence later in life shaped his existential, humanistic, and strengths-based approach to therapy. Guided by his lived experience, Michael helps neurodivergent individuals move beyond self-criticism toward self-understanding, self-compassion, and self-acceptance. His work invites clients to honour their journeys, embrace their resilience, and reconnect with their authentic selves, cultivating a life of greater alignment and meaning.
