Anne Siret, PACFA

Anne Siret is a counsellor with PACFA credentialing and more than 20 years of professional experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and midlife challenges. Her approach is warm and respectful, and she focuses on practical steps that make day-to-day life easier.

Anne listens carefully to each person's situation before suggesting a plan. She adapts conversations and exercises to fit what works for the individual. This can include talking through relationship concerns, coping after loss, or managing symptoms of trauma and abuse.

Sessions can also address self-esteem, career transitions, parenting strain, eating issues and ADHD-related difficulties. She supports people facing social anxiety, emptiness, somatic symptoms and multicultural pressures. Anne pays attention to how life stage and ageing affect choices and relationships.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She explains options in plain language and works with each person to set achievable goals. Progress is checked regularly so plans can be adjusted as needed.

Anne offers help in English and French for people located in Australia. She encourages anyone who is ready to begin to take the step of signing up and completing a short questionnaire to match with her services.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Anne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach is structured problem-solving, which breaks larger issues into small, manageable steps and helps with stress, decision-making and coping with life changes. Another frequently used method emphasises talking through difficult memories and reactions in a gradual way to reduce their impact on daily functioning and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match the person's goals, needs and preferences. Clients and the therapist regularly review what helps and will adjust the plan when needed so the work stays relevant.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins between commitments. It can also suit people who prefer shorter or more flexible appointments; the therapist will discuss what practical arrangements will best support the client's progress.
