About Sabina

Sabina Jugurnauth is an ACA counsellor with six years' experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties, and supports those coping with life changes.

She frames sessions around what the client already knows about their life. Sabina uses clear techniques and practical tools to manage stress and improve sleep. She also supports people dealing with chronic pain, road accident effects and workplace strain.

Sabina works with relationship issues and says she helps couples turn conflict into connection. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns and to practical problems like communication, commitment and blended family tensions.

Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to address patterns of thinking and everyday habits. She also uses Emotionally-Focused and Narrative ideas to untangle emotional responses and personal stories.

Sessions are collaborative and decision-making is shared. Sabina aims to help people develop skills to break old patterns, improve self-esteem and make clearer choices. She will work in English or French and practices in Australia.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and aims to build clear, respectful conversations. It helps when someone needs a steady listener and practical help to make decisions about work, relationships or life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and everyday habits and gives concrete strategies to change them. It is useful for managing anxiety, stress and sleep problems by teaching techniques people can use between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people map and respond to emotional patterns in relationships. It can be helpful for improving communication, attachment concerns and reconnecting in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy proceeds.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around study, shifts or travel and can reduce time spent commuting. It also allows using practical tools and homework between meetings so changes can be practised in day-to-day life.
