About Celine
Celine McMahon is a PACFA counsellor with 15 years' experience working in Australia. She works with people facing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD and the changes life brings. She also lists social anxiety and phobia among her focus areas and supports young adult issues and people who are visually impaired.
Her approach is evidence-based and trauma-informed. She looks beyond symptoms to find the patterns that keep someone feeling stuck. Sessions focus on practical strategies alongside building self-awareness and emotion regulation skills.
Celine uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps with anxious thoughts and behaviours. Narrative therapy supports reworking unhelpful life stories. Mindfulness-based work is used to steady attention and manage overwhelm.
She pays attention to attachment-related issues, codependency and family of origin concerns. Those topics often link to feelings of guilt, shame, emptiness or isolation. Celine aims to help clients develop clearer boundaries and stronger self-directed choices.
With experience supporting children and teenagers, she brings a straightforward style that helps younger people with school and friendship challenges. For adults, sessions often focus on life purpose, self-love and impulsivity related concerns.
People who see her can expect collaboration about goals and tools to practise between sessions. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online matching flow.
How Celine brings evidence-based approaches to online work
She commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviours that fuel anxiety or low mood. CBT often focuses on simple experiments and small behavioural steps that can reduce avoidance and increase confidence.She also uses Narrative Therapy to look at the stories people tell about themselves. Reframing these narratives can shift how someone understands their struggles and their choices. Mindfulness-based approaches are used to build attention and reduce reactivity when feelings become overwhelming.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Celine collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques as progress is made.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work, study or family commitments and avoiding travel time. Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking.
