About Nanny
Nanny Gomiero is an ACA counsellor in Australia with ten years of experience supporting people during hard times. She focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, grief, parenting strain and mood concerns. Her style is warm and down-to-earth.
She aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed. People who meet Nanny describe sessions that centre on listening first. She helps clients name what is happening, spot patterns, and try small changes that can ease daily life.
Background and approach
Conversations are guided by respect and an intention to build clearer emotional understanding rather than quick fixes. Her work draws on attachment-informed thinking and client-centred principles to create a steady, responsive space. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tools are used when helpful to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas support exploring strong feelings and repairing relationships to oneself and others. Nanny also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to help set realistic goals and keep progress practical. This mix suits people who want both understanding and usable strategies for change.
She explains options and adapts the plan to what each person feels ready to try. Sessions are offered in English and Portuguese and are available through video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to therapist availability.
How attachment and CBT work online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how they connect, respond to others and manage closeness, which can be useful for anxiety and relationship-related distress.Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre and uses non-judgemental listening to build understanding and self-direction. This approach supports people who need acceptance and space to explore feelings.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers simple exercises to test unhelpful beliefs. It is often used to reduce anxiety and shift routines that keep problems going.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss these methods and decide together which fits a person’s goals, needs and preferences. Plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, want ongoing brief support, or need sessions that fit around work and family commitments.
