She aims to make the first steps clear and manageable for someone who is uncertain or nervous about starting therapy.

Her experience includes work with multicultural concerns, post-traumatic stress and first responder issues. Anne offers sessions in English and French and brings a sensitive, non-judgemental tone to each conversation. She explains options simply and helps you pick methods that fit your life.
If you want a counsellor who listens, suggests clear next steps and adapts to your needs, she can help you move forward. Getting started is straightforward and she acknowledges that reaching out takes courage. Anne will work with you to set realistic goals and adapt the pace so it suits your circumstances.
Approaches that suit online therapy
Anne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical strategies and supportive conversation. One common approach involves problem-focused work to reduce anxiety and stress by breaking issues into smaller steps and practising coping tools between sessions. This helps people build confidence handling day-to-day triggers and overwhelm.Another approach emphasises processing difficult experiences in a paced way so the person stays in control of the conversation. That method is useful for trauma, grief and painful memories because it combines talking with practical grounding techniques to manage strong emotions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals, consider the issues you bring and suggest options. You and the therapist decide collaboratively which methods fit your preferences and what to try first, with room to change course as needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility that suits many lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter, phone sessions can fit into a lunch break or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging make shorter check-ins simple. These formats make it easier to keep momentum between sessions and to access help from wherever you are in Australia.
