About Stina
Stina Boro is an ACA counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain and identity questions. She works with issues like grief, parenting challenges, addiction, sleep and eating concerns, and career stress. Sessions also cover intimacy, ADHD, compassion fatigue and major life changes.
Her style is calm and collaborative. She listens first, then helps people name what matters to them. Therapy blends practical strategies with deeper conversation about meaning, choice and values.
Background and approach
Sessions are grounded in the person’s experience rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Stina brings eight years of clinical experience. She draws on approaches that include existential therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, attachment-based work, client-centred methods and cognitive behavioural tools.
These offer different ways to tackle symptoms, patterns and life decisions. In a session she might use mindfulness or simple breathing exercises alongside talk therapy. She supports exploration of attachment patterns and values-based steps for change.
The aim is to build useful skills while also attending to deeper questions about identity and purpose. People can expect straightforward language and short-term practical ideas as well as space for longer exploration. Stina practises in Australia and works in English.
She does not see international clients.

Online support
How approach and online delivery work together
Existential therapy helps people look at big questions about meaning, freedom and responsibility. It supports people wrestling with purpose, identity and life transitions by asking what matters and what choices feel authentic. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and on taking small actions toward them while learning skills for handling painful thoughts and feelings. It works well for anxiety, depression and motivation problems. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape patterns in current relationships and helps people notice and change those repeating patterns.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your concerns and goals, then suggest which methods to try first. You and the counsellor can adjust the approach as you go, combining practical skills with deeper reflection when needed.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support or when writing helps with reflection. These options help fit therapy into work, study or family schedules and make it easier to keep regular contact with an appropriately qualified counsellor.
