Rohan Holt, AASW

Rohan Holt helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and anger. He uses a respectful and compassionate approach that aims to meet each person where they are. He encourages a practical first step and acknowledges that seeking help takes courage.

Rohan has 27 years of professional experience working in Australia and brings that steady perspective to sessions. He tailors conversations and treatment plans to each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. His background includes work with caregiving stress, chronic illness and disability, adoption and foster care concerns, and issues linked to ageing and geriatric matters.

In sessions he draws on interventions from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside attachment-informed ideas. That means talking through thoughts and behaviours, noticing what matters most, and practising small changes between sessions. He also uses client-centred conversation to keep the focus on the person’s experience.

Rohan aims to make therapy straightforward. He listens, helps clarify goals, and suggests concrete steps to try between meetings. People who want help with communication problems, commitment worries, body image, or caregiver strain may find this practical style useful.

He holds AASW credentials, works in Australia, and conducts sessions in English. To begin, he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that suits them.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and decisions about caregiving or ageing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviours to reduce anxiety and manage anger. It works well for stress, mood shifts and practical problem solving. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on feelings and relationship patterns, helping people understand and shift emotional responses that affect connection and communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rohan collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. He will discuss what to try first and adapt the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - sessions can be scheduled around caregiving duties, take place when travel is difficult, or allow a shorter check-in when that suits. It also lets people try approaches such as ACT or CBT from familiar surroundings while practising skills between meetings.
