Therapeutic approaches for online counselling and care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and build practical skills to act in line with those values. It supports work with anxiety, low mood, life transitions and patterns of avoidance by combining mindful awareness with committed behaviour change.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape connection styles and emotional responses. It can help with intimacy issues, relationship difficulties, abandonment or attachment concerns by exploring relational patterns and strengthening emotional regulation and safety.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to shift them. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Stina will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best with their needs, goals and preferences, and adjust the way she works as the relationship and goals evolve.

Online therapy with Stina is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives and different circumstances. These options make it easier to access appropriately qualified or registered professionals and therapists from wherever you are in Australia, and to choose the format that feels most comfortable and practical.
