More about Sarah
- 9 years' experience
- Female
- AASW
I am credentialed in Australia with 9 years of professional therapy experience, as well extensive experience in other community sectors, including family violence, disability, victim services and mental health.
I support clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and parenting issues.
Seeing a counsellor can be challenging and anxiety-provoking. In our sessions, you set the pace, and what you wish to focus on. I recognise you as the expert in your own life, and bring my expertise to complement your ideas and approaches, rather than replace them.
I provide an understanding, insightful experience with a focus on the relationship, and helping you to truly understand the origin of your concerns and find a path forward.
I utilise a strengths-based approach, incorporating EMDR, CBT, ACT, solution-focused, psychodynamic, and mindful modalities.
I look forward to connecting with you and getting started supporting you to achieve your goals.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
