About Anne
Anne Stensletten is a psychologist registered with AHPRA and has four years of professional therapy experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and motivation. She also supports those living with chronic pain and people who are neurodivergent.
Anne aims for straightforward, practical sessions. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings.
Her background includes several years working in a different field before moving into psychology. That experience informs a practical approach to problem solving and everyday routines. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with mood and anxiety concerns.
Anne has worked with issues connected to abandonment, relationship breakdown, communication problems, family of origin difficulties and fatherhood issues. She also has experience with avoidant and dependent personality features, dissociation, and the effects of domestic violence.
People who are looking for help with aging and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family challenges, chronic illness or disability, and feelings of guilt or shame can find relevant support in her practice. Sessions aim to be practical, with small achievable goals and ongoing review.
Anne offers sessions in English and Norwegian from her Australian base. Prospective clients are asked to follow the site booking steps to match with her and schedule a first appointment.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Anne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to mood and anxiety concerns. Cognitive approaches help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking; these approaches are useful for anxiety and low mood. Behavioural strategies focus on gradual steps and practice, which can ease avoidance and build confidence in social situations.She also draws on techniques that address trauma and its effects, working at a pace the client finds manageable and focusing on skills for regulation and grounding. The therapist and client decide together which methods fit best, reviewing progress and changing course when needed in a collaborative way.
The site booking process asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule their first session. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online formats when you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into work or family schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Appropriately registered professionals will work with clients to find the format and pace that suit their goals.
