Sidonie Robertson

Sidonie Robertson is an AASW social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety and relationship or intimacy concerns. She brings a warm, curious presence to sessions and aims to make difficult conversations feel manageable. People come to her for support with trauma and abuse, self‑esteem and related issues such as body image and loneliness.

Sidonie works in a client‑centred way. She listens first, then helps people name what matters to them. Sessions are collaborative and focused on making small, useful changes that fit everyday life. She also makes room for hope and lightness alongside hard work.

Her background includes four years of professional experience supporting people with PTSD, OCD, depression and study or work pressures. She has worked with issues tied to abandonment, adoption and attachment, as well as codependency, infidelity and domestic violence. This experience shapes a practical approach to safety and pacing when trauma is involved.

Sidonie uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. She commonly draws on cognitive behavioural strategies, trauma‑focused techniques and narrative ideas to help people reframe difficulties and build new coping habits. Motivational and solution‑focused elements may be used to set goals and track progress.

Sessions are conducted in English and Sidonie practises in Australia. She aims to help people make sense of their experiences and find clearer ways forward, whether they are managing immediate stress or working through longer term patterns.

How Sidonie’s approaches can work online

Sidonie uses cognitive behavioural methods to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood and handling stress by building new, practical habits. Trauma‑focused therapy helps people process distressing events at a careful pace and reduce the ways trauma affects daily life. Narrative therapy pays attention to the stories people tell about themselves and offers ways to reframe those stories so they feel less limiting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sidonie collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques as progress is made, so the plan stays relevant and manageable.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats before booking since none are specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or study, avoid travel time and keep appointments consistent. They also allow for shorter check‑ins when a brief update is helpful, or longer sessions when more space is needed. Appropriately qualified therapists can adapt CBT, trauma‑focused and narrative exercises to an online setting so people keep moving toward their goals.
