Jacqueline Zdravkovski, AASW

Jacqueline Zdravkovski is an AASW social worker with nine years of professional experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. Jacqueline aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and supportive.

She focuses on everyday worries like stress, sleep problems, low self‑esteem and anger. Jacqueline also supports people facing relationship and family difficulties, career questions, grief and major life changes. ADHD, compassion fatigue and caregiver stress are part of her practice too.

In sessions she creates an open, non‑judgemental space for people to talk through thoughts and feelings. Conversations are practical and grounded, aimed at helping people notice what matters and find doable steps forward. She emphasises clear communication and steady pacing so people can build confidence at their own speed.

Jacqueline draws on approaches such as acceptance and commitment strategies, attachment ideas, client‑centred listening, cognitive behaviour techniques and dialectical skills. These are used to help with emotional regulation, communication and decision making rather than as labels for people.

She works in Australia and conducts therapy in English. Jacqueline encourages anyone feeling anxious or in need of change to take the next step and complete the short matching questionnaire to begin scheduling sessions.

How Jacqueline's approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for stress, life changes and feeling stuck. Attachment‑Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current responses, which can help with communication and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches clear strategies for managing anxiety, sleep problems and unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jacqueline will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most useful. She aims to decide together on practical steps and techniques that fit the client's life and needs.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑ins when needed. They also let people use tools like worksheets, behaviour experiments and breathing or grounding exercises during or between meetings. Jacqueline will help tailor session length and tools to match everyday rhythms and practical constraints.
