About Anne

PACFA counsellor with 20 years of professional experience. Anne Siret helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and grief. She also supports those dealing with eating concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career shifts and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and French in Australia.

Anne prefers a practical, evidence-informed way of working. She aims to keep conversations clear and focused. Together with each person she shapes the topics and the plan to suit what they need right now. She avoids jargon and explains ideas in plain language.

Her background spans two decades of clinical work across common life challenges. That experience includes supporting people through bereavement and coping with major life changes. Anne has also worked with issues linked to ageing, autism, first responder stresses and multicultural concerns.

In sessions she concentrates on skills people can use between meetings. This can mean learning emotion-regulation techniques, improving communication, or setting realistic goals for work and family life. She pays attention to how symptoms show up in daily routines and relationships.

People who choose her can expect a collaborative style. Anne helps clients weigh options and try different tools to see what fits. To begin she asks questions about the current problem, recent history and practical goals for therapy.

Evidence-based approaches used in remote sessions

Anne works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to change patterns that keep problems active. One common approach focuses on skills for managing anxiety and stress such as breathing, grounding and planned activity. These tools help reduce immediate distress and build routine coping strategies.

Another approach targets thinking and behaviour patterns that contribute to low mood and relationship strain. It involves identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them in everyday life and trying small behavioural experiments to see what changes. This method is useful for depression, low self-esteem and some relationship difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review symptoms, goals and preferences together and try different methods if needed. The emphasis is on collaborative decision-making rather than a fixed plan imposed from the start.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss practical preferences during the initial matching questionnaire so sessions can be set up to suit daily routines and commitments.
