Rohan Holt, AASW

Rohan Holt is an AASW counsellor with 27 years of professional experience. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and anger. He offers practical support and a straightforward, respectful approach for people feeling stuck or overwhelmed.

Rohan adapts conversations and plans to each person. Sessions focus on clear goals and small changes that fit into everyday life. He uses a mix of talking and exercises to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping.

He draws on approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. Rohan pays attention to attachment and relationship patterns when they matter to the concern at hand. He aims to help people improve communication, manage strong emotions, and make choices that align with their values.

People who come for coaching-style support can expect practical steps and accountability. Those working through trauma or relationship strain will find a pace set to their needs. Rohan emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion in every session.

Signing up for therapy can feel hard, and he recognises that first step takes courage. He will work with each person to build a plan they can follow between sessions and to review progress over time.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take committed action that matches their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and teaches practical skills to change them, which can be helpful for anxiety, anger and mood challenges. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) attends to emotion and patterns in close relationships, aiming to improve connection and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rohan will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit your goals and preferences. He will check in about how an approach feels and adjust plans as you progress to ensure sessions remain useful and relevant.

The therapist's biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online therapy useful because it can fit into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Online sessions can make it easier to maintain continuity of care between appointments and to try strategies in everyday settings without rearranging life. Appropriately qualified therapists can adapt ACT, CBT or EFT techniques effectively in an online setting, and Rohan will discuss what will work best for each person.
