Talk Therapy with Victoria
Counsellor, ACA-L1
Earlwood, NSW 2206
I work with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, family conflict, insomnia, and narcissistic abuse.
Hi. Thank you for visiting my profile. I work with busy professionals who are dealing with burnout, anxiety, depression and trauma (including narcissistic abuse). Clients come to me because I am caring, supportive, a good listener and non judgmental. I help them find a way forward that is robust and durable. I offer Zoom sessions for the busy professional and walk and talk sessions in person in the Inner West for those who feel more comfortable to open up in a less formal yet private environment. I use evidence based tools such as ACT and CBT to help clients move forward and take back their life, their happiness and their purpose.

This level of expertise allows for accurate diagnosis and personalised treatment. I employ practical, tested methods. When you are under stress it is easy to fall into the trap of thinking that you are powerless and that this is just the way things are. You will start to believe, “I’m not as capable as I once was"

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
