Tom Radkovic

Tom is a counselor at Kembali Recovery Center and is currently completing his Degree in Alcohol and Drug Counseling through the Australian Institute of Professional Counsellors (AIPC). With a compassionate and down-to-earth approach, Tom believes that every client is the expert of their own life. His goal is to help individuals recognize the strength and potential they already possess to create meaningful and lasting change.

Tom’s passion for this work is deeply personal. Having walked the path of recovery himself, he understands firsthand the courage it takes to confront addiction and rebuild a meaningful life. Through his own journey of getting clean and sober, Tom discovered a renewed sense of purpose and connection—insights that now guide his work with others. His lived experience allows him to meet clients with genuine empathy and authenticity, offering hope through understanding and example.

Drawing from both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) frameworks, Tom’s style is strength-based and client-led. He focuses on building trust, resilience, and self-awareness—guiding clients to reframe challenges as opportunities for growth and recovery.

Before joining Kembali, Tom worked in community care and recovery settings, including volunteering as a Recovery Coach at Seasons Rehabilitation Centre in Bali. His background also includes years of hands-on experience in wellness-oriented environments, where he developed a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and a natural ability to connect with people from all walks of life.

Tom brings warmth, humility, and encouragement to his counseling work, making him a grounded and relatable presence within the Kembali team. His passion for personal growth and his belief in the transformative power of recovery continue to inspire both clients and colleagues alike.
