About Sylwia
Sylwia Grabowska is an AASW counsellor practising in Australia with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people burdened by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing relationship or parenting challenges.
Her manner is calm and direct, and she aims to make first steps feel manageable. Sylwia creates an open space for people to talk without judgement. Sessions are conversational and practical.
She listens for patterns that keep someone stuck and works with them to try different ways of responding.
Background and approach
Her work draws on several approaches including cognitive behavioural ideas, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and hypnotherapy. She mixes simple exercises with reflective discussion so people can try things between appointments. The emphasis is on small, useful changes rather than quick fixes.
Sylwia pays attention to attachment issues, blended family dynamics, communication and commitment difficulties. She also supports people dealing with grief around infidelity, immigration stresses, substance use concerns and post-traumatic stress reactions. She helps unpack feelings like guilt, shame and emptiness and find practical next steps.
Sessions are offered in English and Polish. People can expect straightforward goals, gentle challenge and choices about what to do next. Sylwia encourages realistic pacing so progress can be sustained over time.

Online support
Approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and small committed actions. It helps people reduce avoidance and build a life that matters to them through practical exercises and mindfulness skills. Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help change unhelpful habits and reduce anxiety. It is often paired with other approaches to support behaviour change. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people try different ways of connecting and communicating in relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through your goals, preferences and what has worked or not worked before. Together you will try methods that suit your needs and adjust them as you go so therapy feels useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers a range of session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions let you use visual cues and a fuller conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a brief check-in and messaging is useful for short updates or homework support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and busy schedules.
