Kylie Docksey , AASW

Kylie Docksey is an AASW counsellor with five years' experience who helps people work through stress, anxiety, grief and life changes. She focuses on practical support that builds confidence and coping skills. Kylie aims to create a respectful, sensitive and compassionate space for people to talk about what matters most.

Kylie tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs. She listens for what is getting in the way of daily life and helps people try small, manageable steps that can make a difference. Sessions often focus on practical strategies for managing mood, panic or social anxiety, and on rebuilding self-esteem after trauma or loss.

Her work also addresses relationship strain and communication problems, and she supports people facing caregiver stress, chronic illness, ageing concerns and loneliness. Women's issues are among the areas Kylie focuses on within her practice.

Kylie draws on several approaches to suit different goals. She uses acceptance and values-based techniques to help people clarify what matters, skills to manage strong emotions, and motivational methods to support change. Mindfulness practices are woven in to help with grounding and present-moment coping.

People who choose Kylie can expect a collaborative, down-to-earth approach. She supports practical problem solving and gentle exploration of feelings so people can move toward clearer goals and better day-to-day functioning.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take manageable steps toward them. It is useful for stress, depression and finding direction when life feels confusing. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for regulating strong emotions and improving relationships, which can help with anxiety, panic and mood problems. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on practising attention to the present moment and can reduce rumination and overwhelm.

Kylie works collaboratively to find the best mix of approaches for each person. She discusses goals and preferences in early sessions and adjusts methods based on how someone responds. Finding the right fit is part of the process and decisions are made together throughout therapy.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or suit brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing reflection and quick practical prompts between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving routines and busy schedules.
