About Anne
Anne Siret is a counsellor with more than 20 years of professional experience in Australia. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, or life changes. She also supports those managing trauma, eating concerns, parenting strain, ADHD, and career questions in a respectful, compassionate way.
Anne keeps sessions simple and practical. She listens first, then works with each person to shape a plan that fits their life.
How Anne works
She explains steps clearly and breaks tasks down into manageable actions that can be used between sessions. Her background spans two decades of client work across diverse concerns. That experience helps her recognise common patterns and tailor approaches for individual needs.
She adapts methods to suit different personalities and goals rather than using one fixed formula. Anne is credentialed with PACFA, the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia. She offers sessions in English and French and draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide conversations and exercises.
People who come to her can expect a non-judgemental space and a steady, practical approach. She encourages small changes that add up over time and supports clients to build coping skills, clearer communication and a stronger sense of direction.

Online support options
Evidence-based approaches for online counselling
Anne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and build skills. One common approach focuses on teaching practical coping strategies for anxiety and stress - this involves identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practising alternative responses to reduce worry and improve daily functioning. Another approach targets trauma and grief by helping people process difficult memories at a manageable pace and develop new ways to cope with intense emotions.Choosing the right approach is part of the process and will be collaborative. The therapist will listen to your concerns, discuss options, and together decide which methods suit your goals and preferences. Adjustments are made over time if something isn’t working well for you.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let you use visual cues and a fuller conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day, while live chat or text messaging suit short check-ins or ongoing coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments, and they help people keep momentum between sessions.
