About Nalini
ACA and PACFA counsellor with 8 years of experience, Nalini Sharma helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and self-esteem concerns. She works in Australia and conducts sessions in English. Her practice focuses on practical steps individuals can use day to day.
Nalini begins by listening to what matters most for the person in front of her. She asks simple questions about current problems and what has been tried already. From there she and the client set short-term goals and select techniques that are likely to help within a few sessions.
Her work draws on several evidence-based methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and reduce avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are introduced to manage strong emotions and reduce impulsive reactions.
Nalini also addresses relationship patterns, attachment concerns and communication problems. She helps people work through issues such as body image, guilt, shame and workplace stress. Practical skills and homework are commonly part of sessions to reinforce learning between meetings.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and costs vary with location. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Nalini aims for clear, practical work that fits into everyday life.

How ACT, CBT and mindfulness are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and practise actions that match those values. Online work often focuses on small, practical steps to reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours. Delivered remotely, CBT commonly uses brief exercises and written worksheets to track patterns between sessions.
Mindfulness therapy introduces short attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional control. These techniques can be taught in-session and practiced between meetings to build steady skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, past experience and preferences, then agree on methods to try. That collaborative process helps decide whether ACT, CBT, mindfulness or a mix is the best fit.
The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered. Please confirm available formats before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Appropriately qualified or registered therapists can adapt exercises for remote sessions and support practical skill use between meetings.
