She divides her time between private practice, EAP (Employee Assistance Programme) and working in community metal health. She has a broad range of personal and professional life experiences from which she draws and operates through a strengths based, humanistic, wide boundary lens.
You are a whole person, not a set of symptoms, label or diagnosis. I value who you are, where you’ve come from, and the resourcefulness that got you here.
I offer a safe, non-judgemental space for people to explore challenges, build understanding and access support.
I am deeply interested in helping humans to flourish & live lovingly.
I'm an independent, private practice keeping costs low. This way, I am able to offer affordable counselling sessions online across Australia.
At the heart of my clinical practice lies a commitment to fostering care & creating meaningful therapeutic partnerships.
With years of experience supporting individuals, particularly with their relationships, I’ve come to believe that the way we connect—with partners, family members, friends, or colleagues—has a profound impact on our wellbeing. My role is to help you understand those patterns, uncover what's getting in the way, and develop new ways of relating that feel more honest, safe, and fulfilling. My approach is warm, non-judgmental, and inclusive.Roberta has extensive experience & uses evidenced based therapeutic modalities individually tailored to meet your needs including, Mindfulness & Compassion Focused; Emotion Focused (EFT); Relational Life Therapy (RLT ), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT); Buddhist Psychology, Depth Psychology & EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing).
I am on Therapy Online Australia since: 01 October 2026
