About Francoise
Francoise Nicoloff is an AHPRA-registered practitioner with over 40 years of professional experience in Australia. She speaks English and French and works with common early-adulthood pressures such as stress, anxiety, motivation, self-esteem and depression. Her practice also covers parenting concerns and relationship and family issues when individuals bring them up.
She uses clear, practical conversation rather than jargon. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small steps people can try between meetings. Francoise includes mindfulness exercises and problem-solving techniques to help with day-to-day coping and concentration.
Francoise also has experience with trauma and abuse, grief, sleeping difficulties and anger. She supports people dealing with career questions, money worries, life changes and the particular frustrations of ADHD and mood disorders. Her work includes attention to attachment and communication problems that affect how people relate to others.
Her style draws from client-centred and solution-focused approaches, and she uses trauma-focused methods when needed. She aims to work with each person’s goals and practical constraints rather than applying one fixed method.
Francoise asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach centre on the person’s own goals and preferences and help people clarify what they want to change.Mindfulness Therapy teaches short exercises to calm the body and steady attention. Practising these techniques between sessions can help with anxiety, sleep and concentration problems that often come with early adult responsibilities.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Francoise will review what you want to achieve and suggest methods to try, then adjust based on what helps. This remains a collaborative process where goals and practicalities guide the plan.
The biography does not specify which session formats she uses, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people value online sessions because they fit more easily into study or work days, allow quieter surroundings, reduce travel time and make it simpler to maintain continuity when schedules change.
