About Sobia
Sobia Gohar is an ACA counsellor with seven years of experience working in Australia. She sees people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, parenting pressures, sleep problems, addictions, anger and related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Urdu and are aimed at practical change rather than quick fixes.
Sobia uses a structured, trauma-informed approach and works collaboratively while offering clear therapeutic direction. That means she listens for patterns, then suggests straightforward tools to try between sessions. People learn ways to manage strong feelings, reduce reactive responses, and improve communication with others.
Her practice draws on person-centred ideas and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, applied in plain language. Person-centred work helps people talk through what matters most to them. CBT focuses on noticing thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and testing small changes to see what helps.
Sobia emphasises consistency and gradual progress. Typical sessions include reviewing recent reactions, practising emotion regulation skills, and setting achievable next steps. She also addresses attachment and abandonment themes when they appear, and supports work on self-esteem, body image and relationship boundaries.
People who want to explore patterns of anger or carry less resentment will find a practical orientation in sessions. She encourages steady practice of new skills and regular check-ins to measure what is changing. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Her practice combines person-centred work and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in a straightforward way. Person-centred work means the client leads the topics while the counsellor reflects and clarifies what matters most. It helps when someone needs space to understand feelings, including anger and grief. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses small practical experiments to reduce unwanted reactions and build better coping skills.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sobia takes a collaborative stance and will help assess which methods fit a client’s goals and preferences. Together they plan which tools to try and how to measure progress over time, adjusting methods if something is not helping.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time so people can keep regular appointments. These practical benefits help people repeatedly practise new ways of responding to anger, manage stress between sessions, and keep momentum with their goals.
