About Anne
Anne Stensletten is an AHPRA-registered psychologist who brings four years of clinical practice in Australia. She previously worked in another field and now focuses on helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship problems. Anne talks plainly and supports people to take practical steps forward.
Her work emphasises that clients know their own story and strengths. She listens for what matters most and helps people build on what already works. Sessions are aimed at small, achievable changes rather than quick fixes.
Anne has experience assisting people affected by trauma and abuse, and she supports those struggling with self-esteem and motivation. She also has experience with neurodivergence such as autism and attention differences, and an interest in helping people who live with chronic pain or long-term health conditions.
She explains options clearly and helps people set goals they can manage. Conversations are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Practical strategies are offered alongside space to process difficult experiences.
If someone is nervous about starting therapy, Anne focuses on making the first steps straightforward. She helps people work out what they want from sessions and how to fit therapy into everyday life.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Anne describes her work as evidence-based and practical. Two common approaches she draws on are behavioural strategies and trauma-informed care. Behavioural strategies focus on simple actions and routines that reduce stress and lift mood, which can help with anxiety, depression and motivation. Trauma-informed care emphasises safety, pacing and understanding how past harm affects current reactions, which is useful for people processing abuse or difficult relationships.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Anne will discuss different options with each person and tailor sessions to their goals and preferences. She works collaboratively to decide what to try first and checks in regularly to see what is helping.
The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available formats before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit more easily around work and family, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-in sessions when needed. Anne aims to make sessions practical and adaptable so therapy can slot into everyday life.
