About Nalini
Nalini Sharma is an ACA counsellor and PACFA member with eight years of professional experience. She focuses on practical support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem. Nalini aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where people feel heard and understood.
She adapts conversations and intervention plans to each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Sessions often include clear strategies for managing worry, tools to reduce unhelpful habits, and ways to rebuild confidence after difficult events.
Background and approach
Nalini uses a mix of evidence-informed approaches and everyday language so concepts are easy to use between sessions. Her work also covers attachment issues, body image concerns, communication problems and the emotional impact of separation. She supports people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity and mood difficulties, and those facing workplace stress or social anxiety.
Nalini pays attention to how relationships and past hurts shape present behaviour. In sessions she draws on practical exercises, mindful awareness and values-based work to help people make small, steady changes. People leave with doable steps they can try between appointments.
Nalini encourages honest feedback so the plan stays relevant. She offers therapy in English from Australia and will discuss which formats suit each person. Nalini recognises taking the first step takes courage and aims to make the process clear and manageable.
Therapeutic approaches and online delivery
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying personal values and taking small committed steps that match those values. It is useful for managing anxiety, habit patterns and the stuckness that follows trauma. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at practical links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses clear exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, mood and workplace stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then recommend techniques to try. If something doesn’t feel like a good fit, adjustments are made so the work matches the person’s pace and needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and exercises, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins or brief problem-solving, and text-based messaging is useful for ongoing support and homework reminders. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and to carry skills into everyday life.
