My name is Larissa, I am a passionate and dedicated mental health practitioner with extensive experience supporting individuals to navigate life's challenges and build resilience. With specialised training in treating anxiety, depression, and relationship dynamics, I take a client-cantered approach, tailoring each session to meet your unique needs and goals.
My practice is grounded in evidence-based psychological therapies, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness-Based Strategies. I also specialize in Narrative Therapy, helping clients explore and reshape their personal stories to align with their values and foster meaningful growth.
As an emerging Accredited Mental Health Social Worker, I bring a compassionate and non-judgmental perspective to my work. I provide a safe and supportive environment where you can openly explore your emotions, develop effective coping strategies, and gain clarity about your path forward. My nuanced understanding of mental health complexities ensures that each session is empowering and reflective of your aspirations.
I have worked extensively with individuals from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. My approach integrates proven therapeutic techniques with a deep respect for each client’s individuality and strengths.
I am deeply committed to promoting mental wellness, fostering personal growth, and strengthening connections within communities. Whether you’re seeking support to manage anxiety, overcome depression, improve relationships, or navigate life’s transitions, I work alongside you to create meaningful change and rediscover balance.
Thank you for looking into my profile, I look forward to connecting with you in collaboration to shape a life that reflects your values and aspirations.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
