About Stina

Stina Boro is an ACA counsellor with eight years' experience based in Australia. She works with stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, addiction, grief, parenting, sleeping and eating concerns, and anger. She also supports people navigating identity, career changes, ADHD, and other life transitions.

Her style is practical and conversational. Sessions focus on noticing patterns, identifying what leads to outbursts, and building simple skills to manage intensity. She uses evidence-informed tools alongside exploratory conversation so people can try new ways of responding to irritation and resentment.

Stina draws on several clinical approaches to structure work in session. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take small actions even when feelings are strong. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to map how thoughts and behaviours feed anger and to test different responses. Attachment-based ideas help when anger is linked to long-standing relationship hurts.

She takes a person-centred approach, listening for what matters most and checking in about what helps or hinders progress. Practical exercises, breathing work, and mindfulness can appear in sessions when useful and with consent. The aim is steady skill-building rather than quick fixes.

Stina practices from Australia and conducts sessions in English. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the online therapy options button.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and committed action. Online sessions use ACT to help people decide what matters and take small steps despite difficult feelings, which can be useful for anger tied to frustration or work stress.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. In an online session CBT is used to map triggers for anger, test assumptions, and try alternative responses through homework and role plays adapted for a remote setting.

Attachment-based therapy addresses how early relationship patterns affect current reactions. Online conversations can identify these patterns and practise different ways of relating when anger comes up with close others.

Finding the right approach is usually collaborative. The therapist will discuss options, try methods in session, and adjust based on what feels most helpful for the client's goals and preferences.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is tight, or avoid travel. It also lets people try exercises and homework between sessions to build new habits that reduce reactivity.
