About Angela

Angela Jakovac is an AHPRA-credentialed counsellor with 35 years of experience in helping people overcome stress and anxiety. She works with people facing grief, low self-esteem, motivation and career concerns. Angela aims to make the first step feel manageable and will adapt her approach to each person's needs.

She uses a mix of practical talking and structured techniques. Sessions focus on building coping skills, improving confidence and clarifying next steps for work or life choices.

Background and approach

Conversations are paced to suit the person and to keep therapy usable between sessions. Angela draws on evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness, alongside Hypnotherapy and Narrative approaches when appropriate. She explains options and works with clients to choose what feels most helpful for their situation.

Her style is calm and respectful. She pays attention to how stress shows up in daily life and to small changes that make a difference over time. People can expect clear goals and simple exercises to practise between sessions.

Sessions are conducted in English and Croatian and are delivered online by video, phone, live chat or messaging. Angela tailors how she works to suit each person's routine and communication preferences.

Online support

Approaches and online options that fit your life

Hypnotherapy can help people access relaxation and new ways of thinking by using guided focus and suggestion; it is often used for stress, confidence and habit change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical tools to reduce anxiety and manage mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand and express strong emotions and rebuild confidence in relationships and communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Angela will explain these methods and help decide what fits your goals and preferences. The plan is shaped by what you want to change and how you prefer to work, so the process is collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation and shared exercises, phone calls suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and messaging or chat can be useful for brief check-ins or asynchronous support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
