About Constance
Constance Siaflas is an ACA counsellor in Australia with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family difficulties, trauma and depression. Constance lists additional areas including attachment and abandonment, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and panic symptoms.
Her style is straightforward and strengths-based. She treats people as the experts on their own lives and helps them notice what already works. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication rather than long theory talks.
Constance uses a few evidence-informed methods. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live by their values even when feelings are hard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours. Attachment-based ideas guide work around closeness, trust and repeating family patterns.
Typical conversations include identifying manageable goals, practising short exercises between sessions, and checking what fits day to day life. She also helps with specific problems such as money stress, separation and the emotional impact of illness. The emphasis is on small, usable changes that reduce pressure at home.
If someone wants to start, Constance asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Her approach is practical and paced, suitable for people juggling family obligations and everyday responsibilities.
How sessions work
Approaches you can expect and how online sessions work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then acting in ways that match your values. It can help with anxiety, depression and living with ongoing stress. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking patterns and behaviour. It helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of coping that reduce symptoms like panic and low mood.Finding the right approach is something to work through together. Constance will talk about your goals and preferences, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust what you do in sessions based on what helps. The decision about which approach to use is collaborative and may change over time.
The original biography does not list the exact online session formats offered, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, sessions can remove travel time, allow a shorter check-in on a busy day, or make it simpler to meet between other responsibilities. Discuss format preferences when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule your first session.
