About Stina
Stina Boro is an ACA counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and identity concerns. She works with clients on trauma, self-esteem, eating and sleeping problems, and the effects of major life changes.
Background and approach
Stina uses a practical, calm approach to make sessions feel steady and hopeful. Her style is collaborative and person-centred.
She listens first, then helps clients notice patterns in thinking, feeling and behaviour. Sessions often include simple grounding and breathing techniques to manage strong emotions and to make talking easier.
Stina draws on several evidence-informed methods, including the Gottman Method for relationship work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and action, and attachment-based ideas to understand closeness and trust. She also uses client-centred and cognitive behavioural techniques when they fit the client’s goals.
With eight years of clinical experience in Australia, Stina brings practical tools and everyday language to sessions. She supports people exploring sexuality, gender, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, and neurodiversity issues such as autism and ADHD.
Stina aims to make therapy useful from the first meeting. She values clear goals, regular check-ins, and teaching skills that carry into daily life.
People who want a grounded, compassionate counsellor who focuses on connection and workable strategies often find her approach helpful.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Stina combines the Gottman Method with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-based ideas to guide online work. The Gottman Method focuses on communication patterns and practical behaviours that shape relationships, helping people improve connection and reduce conflict. ACT encourages noticing thoughts and choosing actions based on personal values, which is useful for anxiety, depression and life changes. Attachment-based work helps people understand patterns of closeness and trust and how early experiences can affect current relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Stina collaborates with each client to identify goals, test methods and adjust the way they work together. That means the plan can change as progress is made and different tools are needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video calls are useful for face-to-face connection and practising communication skills, phone sessions can be better when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and messaging suits people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These options aim to make access easier while keeping the focus on progress and practical skills.
