About Sabina

Sabina Jugurnauth is an ACA counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and depression. She focuses on practical coping strategies and supports people facing major life changes. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

Sabina trained in psychotherapy and counselling and holds a Master in Psychotherapy and Counselling from Western Sydney University. She also has a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Mauritius and is completing an MA in Psychology (Clinical). This mix of study informs a clinical and thoughtful approach to everyday problems.

In practice she supports people recovering from family and domestic violence, coping with chronic pain or illness, and those affected by road accidents. She works on sleep, self-esteem, stress management and workplace strain. She also helps people address codependency and relationship patterns that leave them stuck.

Sabina describes therapy as a joint process. She invites clients to define goals and to explore painful memories and current habits. Conversations include practical tools to break old patterns and small experiments to try between sessions.

Sessions use plain language and focus on what can change now. Sabina draws on a range of approaches to suit each person. She offers support in English and French and works from Australia.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client’s experience and aims to create an accepting space where a person can think things through and make choices. It helps with anxiety, low mood and relationship questions by prioritising the client's own goals and pace.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, stress and depression and includes exercises to use between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and shift emotional responses that keep relationships stuck. It is useful for repairing connection and understanding recurring conflict patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Sabina will work together with clients to choose methods that match goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as needs evolve. That collaborative process helps make sessions feel relevant and manageable.

Confirm current session options before booking as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins between commitments, or offering a way to meet when leaving work is difficult. Discuss practical arrangements with the therapist when you schedule to choose what will work best for you.
