Holly Uhlich , AASW

Holly Uhlich is an experienced social worker and counsellor with more than 15 years in practice. She holds AASW as a credential and focuses on helping people increase self-understanding and build confidence. Holly tends to work with concerns like stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and self-esteem. She describes herself as empathic and respectful in her approach.

Holly blends social work and holistic counselling methods to suit each person’s needs. She uses group work, meditation and mindfulness tools alongside talking therapy when these fit the client. Sessions are tailored so practical ideas are offered alongside room to reflect and make sense of difficult feelings.

Common practical goals Holly supports include managing everyday stress, coping with life changes, repairing communication problems and rebuilding self-worth after hurt. She also helps people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, body image concerns and caregiver strain. Chronic illness or pain and the emotional work that follows are within her scope too.

Holly aims for clear, down-to-earth conversations. She will help you set achievable steps and check progress over time. If you want a calm, relational style with tools you can use between sessions, she may be a good fit.

Holly works from Australia and offers sessions online in English. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that suits you.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Holly draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques combined with mindfulness practices. Mindfulness and meditation are used to help calm overwhelming thoughts and teach simple attention skills. These tools can suit people managing stress, anxiety and ongoing low mood.

She also uses relational social work methods that focus on how relationships and life roles affect wellbeing. This approach looks at communication habits, attachment patterns and practical steps to improve connections and reduce isolation. For people facing life changes or relationship strain, the emphasis is on clear, usable strategies rather than abstract theory.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Holly will talk about goals and try different ways of working to match what you need. That decision is collaborative and reviewed as you progress so the therapy stays useful and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is good for longer, in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit quick updates, reflections between sessions or people who prefer not to use audio or video. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
