More about Tyler
- 6 years' experience
- Male
- PACFA
I am a counsellor in Australia with 5 years of professional work experience as a terapist, and 18 years total of working with young people and their families in a variety of community support roles. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, & trauma and abuse. I am a family therapist specialising in trauma, I also enjoy helping individuals and couples find solutions to their own challenges through the theraputic processs. I strongly believe that good therapy is an encounter, and not a performance where I as the therapist am an "expert". Rather, it is a conversation, which means to wonder with. I don't have all of the answers, I have experience at finding what are helpful questions to explore together.

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.
