About Stina

Stina Boro is an ACA counsellor with eight years' experience based in Australia. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, anger, grief, self‑esteem issues, addictions and related concerns. Stina also lists areas such as parenting, intimacy, career shifts and ADHD among her focus areas.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions tend to centre on clear goals, practical skills and checking what works for the person. Stina draws on therapies that look at thoughts, behaviours and relationships to reduce reactivity and build steadier responses to triggers.

She uses approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside attachment‑based and client‑centred ways of working. That mix helps with managing anger, improving communication, and handling emotion after trauma. Stina also brings experience supporting people with identity questions, sexual culture matters such as BDSM and kink, and body image concerns.

Sessions may include mindfulness or grounding exercises and practical coaching around coping strategies. The focus is on learning manageable steps to stop anger from escalating and on repairing relationships where needed. Stina encourages skill practice between sessions so change can be noticed in daily life.

Sessions are conducted in English in Australia. To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's online booking route.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thinking and take action that aligns with their values. It is useful for anger that comes from avoidance or rigid rules about how things should be. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to interrupt escalation and reduce impulsive responses. Attachment‑based therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early connection styles show up in adult anger and conflict.

Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to try methods that suit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan based on what helps most in day‑to‑day life. Expect a mix of discussion, skills practice and short exercises to try between sessions.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping momentum with regular check‑ins. The site's booking flow asks you to complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session, so you can confirm which session options are offered before booking. This helps make therapy fit around work, family and other commitments.
