Advaitha Sriramaneni

Advaitha Sriramaneni is an ACA counsellor who works with adults and young people in Australia. She draws on three years of practice in community, employment and private practice settings. Her work focuses on support after trauma, adjustment to change, grief and loss, and everyday mental health concerns such as anxiety and depression.

She describes her style as warm and person-centred. Building trust is central to her approach. She helps people identify strengths and set small, practical goals for change.

Advaitha uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods. She draws on cognitive behavioural approaches, dialectical behaviour ideas and acceptance and commitment practices to help people manage distress and make values-based choices. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing also feature in sessions when helpful.

Sessions can explore relationships, intimacy concerns, stress, coping with life changes and work‑related issues. She also supports people facing grief, addiction-related challenges, ADHD-related concerns, and caregiver strain. Additional areas of focus include body image, attachment and adjustment after separation.

Her work balances short-term problem solving with longer-term skill building. People can expect practical tools, checked-in goals and straightforward feedback during sessions. Advaitha aims to help clients build resilience, confidence and better everyday functioning.

Conversations are offered in English and Telugu. Prospective clients choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes where a clearer sense of direction helps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behaviours, often using short exercises between sessions to build new habits. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) offers skills for regulating emotions and improving distress tolerance, which can help when feelings feel overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Advaitha will discuss different methods and help decide what fits a person’s needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions around work or caregiving. Online sessions may reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep regular appointments.
