About Divina
Divina Daryanani offers calm, practical support for people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or low self-esteem. She speaks plainly and helps clients map small, workable steps toward feeling more capable. Divina is an ACA counsellor with three years of professional experience in Australia and she aims to make starting therapy as simple as possible.
She focuses on what matters day to day: improving communication, rebuilding confidence, and managing big emotions.
How Divina works
Sessions focus on real problems such as sleep and eating difficulties, grief, trauma and addiction concerns. Divina adapts conversations and plans to each person rather than using the same approach for everyone. Her approach is collaborative and practical.
She helps people set clear goals, try new coping strategies, and review what works. She pays attention to attachment, abandonment concerns and the impact of family of origin on current relationships. Divina also supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiving stress, autism and Asperger Syndrome related challenges, and career or parenting strain.
She listens for how values and body image shape a person’s choices and helps untangle repeated patterns such as control or dependent behaviour. People can expect respectful, sensitive work that balances emotional exploration with doable steps. Divina aims to help clients feel empowered to make changes and to notice progress between sessions.

Online support options
How evidence-based approaches translate to online therapy
Many clients benefit from brief, structured techniques that focus on skills practice. Cognitive-style approaches help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try alternative responses, which can ease anxiety and low mood. Behavioural techniques emphasise small experiments and habit changes such as sleep routines, exercise or paced exposure for social or avoidance worries.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to set goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. Together they review progress and adjust the plan until it feels useful and doable.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation from home while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing to talking or need a quick way to check in between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy around work, study and caregiving commitments while keeping regular support accessible.
