More about Christabel

- AASW
I am a compassionate and experienced Social Worker with 22 years of practice. I believe that healing occurs in environments that are safe, respectful, and culturally attuned. My approach is person centred and trauma informed, grounded in the understanding that each individual’s story is shaped by culture, identity, family, and lived experience.
Coming from a culturally diverse background myself, I appreciate the complexities of navigating identity, expectations, stigma, and belonging. I am committed to providing culturally responsive care, particularly for individuals who may feel misunderstood, marginalised, or unheard.
My professional experience spans trauma recovery, sexual assault counselling, community mental health, relationship counselling, and supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, family violence, and major life transitions. I am skilled in crisis intervention, risk assessment, and the use of evidence based therapeutic modalities.
I offer structured, collaborative, and goal oriented therapy focused on strengthening emotional regulation, building resilience, enhancing relationship functioning, and supporting long term psychological wellbeing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
