About Rohan

Rohan Holt is an AASW counsellor with 27 years of professional experience. He helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious or overwhelmed by relationship problems, trauma, anger or codependency. He aims to make the first step feel manageable and respectful for anyone who reaches out.

Rohan uses plain conversation to understand what matters most to each person. He listens carefully and then tailors the sessions to the individual's needs. That might mean working on thoughts and behaviours, exploring attachment patterns, or helping people name and manage strong emotions.

Sessions focus on practical skills and real-life changes. People are encouraged to try small experiments between sessions and report back on what worked. Rohan adapts the pace so progress feels realistic rather than rushed.

Over his career he has supported people facing a wide range of concerns, including abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image and commitment worries. He also helps people with communication and co-morbidity issues when these affect daily life.

Rohan describes his approach as collaborative and compassionate. He respects each person's story and works with clients to build clearer goals. If you are ready to begin, the first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session.

How therapy methods translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and build small, values-based actions. It often supports people who feel stuck with worry, avoidance or unhelpful habits. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current ways of connecting and reacting. It can help people understand triggers and try new ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and respect to help someone explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. The therapist will discuss these approaches with the client and choose or combine methods based on the person's goals and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow check-ins during a lunch break, or remove travel time. It can also help people try different therapeutic techniques from familiar surroundings, and it supports continuity of care when attending in person is difficult. Appropriately qualified therapists will discuss practical details when you schedule.
