Anne Stensletten , AHPRA

Anne Stensletten is an AHPRA-registered psychologist with four years of clinical experience. She draws on her prior career and life experience to offer calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. Anne speaks English and Norwegian and works with adults who want clear, steady help.

Clients commonly come for help after difficult events such as trauma or abuse, or when day-to-day worries become overwhelming. Anne also supports people troubled by low self-esteem, motivation or confidence. She has experience with neurodivergence, including autism and attention differences, and with people living with chronic pain or long-term illness.

In sessions Anne treats the person rather than a label. She believes each client knows their own story and has strengths to build on. Conversations are practical, grounded and focused on small steps that make life easier day to day.

Her approach aims to make difficult topics easier to speak about. Anne helps people notice patterns, try new ways of coping and practise those changes between sessions. She encourages straightforward goals and keeps work relevant to what matters most to the client.

People who prefer a collaborative, gentle style tend to fit well with Anne. She supports those who are ready to reflect and also to try new habits. If you want a therapist who listens carefully and helps you find workable next steps, she can help.

To begin you will complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Sessions are offered in multiple online formats to suit different needs.

How Anne adapts evidence-based approaches to online care

Anne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. Cognitive approaches help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and test new, more helpful thoughts; these methods are useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Skills-based strategies teach coping and emotion regulation tools that can be practised between sessions to manage strong feelings and everyday difficulties.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Anne works with each client to choose methods that match their needs, goals and comfort level. She explains options, checks in about what helps, and adjusts the plan as therapy progresses.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into real life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or want flexible, brief contact between sessions. These options support continuity of care and make regular work on goals more achievable.
