About David

David Garozzo-Vaglio helps people navigate stress, anxiety, sleep problems and depression. He also supports people facing life changes and the challenges of ageing and geriatric issues. David works in a calm, respectful way and adapts sessions to each person's needs.

David has seven years of professional experience and is registered with AHPRA. He draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to keep sessions focused and practical. Conversations centre on what is happening now and what can change to make daily life easier.

In sessions David listens for the patterns that keep problems stuck. He talks through coping strategies and small behaviour changes that can reduce anxiety, improve sleep and ease low mood. He also addresses the added strain of chronic pain, illness and disability when this is part of the picture.

People working through life transitions or searching for clearer purpose will find a straightforward approach. David pays attention to values and realistic goal-setting so plans feel doable. He adapts language and pace for people who prefer a gentle, step-by-step process.

French and Italian speakers can work in their preferred language when helpful. To begin, clients choose the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to availability.

How therapeutic methods translate to online care

David uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach involves short, goal-focused work to reduce anxiety and panic by learning breathing and exposure-style steps that gently challenge fears. Another approach targets sleep and mood by adjusting daily routines and small behaviours that add up to better rest and steadier moods.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to test what helps, adjust techniques and set achievable goals. Together they review progress and change the plan if something isn’t working.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins between commitments, or making it simpler to attend when mobility is limited. It can also let people choose sessions that better match their energy for face-to-face conversation or phone contact. Appropriately registered therapists will discuss practical arrangements and help match the method to a client’s goals and preferences.
