About Chaz
Chaz Fuda is a psychologist registered with AHPRA and has five years of clinical experience in Australia. He lists stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes among the issues he works with. He also focuses on abandonment, attachment issues, impulsivity, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, men's issues, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia, and young adult issues.
Chaz has practised in a variety of settings including hospitals, schools, child protection services, clinical practice, online telehealth and home visits. He has supported people presenting with a wide range of difficulties such as autism, ADHD, mood and anxiety concerns, trauma-related problems, psychotic presentations and sleep disturbance. His background includes both assessment and hands-on support work.
His approach draws heavily on the roots of cognitive and behavioural therapy. He emphasises how thoughts influence feelings and behaviour, and works with people to identify and test unhelpful thinking patterns. He names thinkers such as Aaron Beck and Albert Ellis as influences while keeping sessions practical and focused.
Chaz aims to help people develop clearer, more critical thinking about stressful situations. He adapts techniques when needed and combines structured cognitive-behavioural methods with practical problem solving. Sessions typically involve talking through specific situations, trying new ways of responding, and reviewing what helps in daily life.
People looking for support with social anxiety and phobia will find his stated focus aligns with those difficulties. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and arrangements through the platform so they know how to proceed.
How his cognitive and behavioural approaches work online
Chaz bases much of his practice on cognitive behavioural principles. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, testing those thoughts, and trying new behaviours. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress-related problems and aims to change the cycle that keeps distress going.He also draws on practical problem-solving techniques. This means working through specific, everyday situations together, breaking problems into steps and testing small changes between sessions. That approach is useful for issues like coping with life changes, impulsivity and social anxiety situations.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Chaz will work with the person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences, and he will adapt methods over time. The focus is on what helps in real life rather than on a fixed protocol.
The biography mentions experience with online telehealth but does not specify current session formats here, so confirm the exact options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work or study, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits the person. Ask about session length and format when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match daily routines.
