About Sobia
Sobia Gohar is an ACA counsellor with seven years of clinical experience in Australia. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship problems, addictions, anger and other life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and Urdu.
Sobia uses a collaborative style while giving clear therapeutic direction. She draws on person-centred therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and focuses on practical tools for emotion regulation. That means people spend time identifying patterns, testing small changes and building everyday skills.
Her work includes help with attachment and abandonment issues, communication and control problems, intimacy and commitment concerns, and the effects of domestic violence. She also supports people facing caregiver stress, body image worries, sleep problems and compassion fatigue.
Sobia aims for steady, measurable progress rather than quick fixes. Therapy often involves structured exercises, homework between sessions, and checking whether new strategies actually fit a person’s life. The focus is on clearer thinking and healthier responses when stress or anger arises.
People who choose her usually want a direct, practical approach. She offers a professional setting to talk through difficult experiences and practice different ways of responding. Her style is consistent and geared toward long-term change.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Person-centred therapy focuses on a respectful, listening-based approach. It helps people clarify their thoughts and feelings so they can make decisions that fit their values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. CBT offers practical exercises and experiments to change unhelpful thinking and reduce strong emotional reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that suit the client. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasise skills-based CBT work or deeper person-centred exploration.
The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also make it easier to keep regular appointments around work or family commitments. Ask what formats are offered when you schedule the first session so you know how best to arrange sessions around your life.
