About Nanny

Nanny Gomiero is an ACA credentialed counsellor in Australia with ten years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting pressures and depression. She speaks English and Portuguese and bases her practice on several established talking therapies.

Her practice focuses on practical, conversational work. She helps people name what is happening, notice patterns from their relationships and family of origin, and try small changes that can ease daily strain. Sessions are straightforward and aim to make the next steps clearer rather than offering quick fixes.

Nanny often uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds affect current relationships. She draws on client-centred methods to keep sessions focused on the person in front of her. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when addressing anxious or low mood symptoms, with concrete tools to test unhelpful thoughts.

She also brings emotionally-focused and motivational interviewing approaches when relationship emotions or readiness to change are central. This mix is chosen to suit practical concerns like parenting stress, codependency, isolation and feelings of emptiness.

People contact her about life transitions such as immigration, relationship betrayals, family conflict and questions about life purpose. She asks about goals early on and works collaboratively to set session priorities that fit the person’s everyday life.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and interactions. In online sessions this approach helps identify patterns that affect intimacy, trust and separation issues, and it can be useful for people facing abandonment or attachment concerns.

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person’s experience and priorities. The therapist listens without directing the agenda and follows the client’s lead to clarify goals and next steps. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) gives practical tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioural changes, which can help with anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss and decide with the client which methods suit their situation, goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps shape how sessions progress over time.

The biography does not state which online formats are used, so confirm available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into study or work weeks, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also makes it simpler to continue conversation across life changes, with the therapist and client agreeing on session length and frequency to fit everyday routines.
