About Nanny
Nanny Gomiero is an ACA counsellor based in Australia with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges and depression. She communicates in English and Portuguese and aims to be straightforward and practical in sessions.
Nanny focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behaviours. She pays attention to attachment and family of origin issues, abandonment and communication problems. That helps when patterns repeat across relationships and leave people feeling stuck or isolated.
Sessions use clear, common-sense techniques. She draws on client-centred methods to listen and reflect, cognitive behavioural tools to shift thinking and behaviour, and emotionally-focused and attachment-based ideas to improve connection. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused steps are used when people want short-term change or clearer goals.
People come for a wide range of concerns beyond the main areas. These include caregiver stress, codependency, dependent personality traits, guilt and shame, immigration issues, infidelity and questions about life purpose. She also supports those coping with mood disorders and loneliness.
Nanny describes her style as direct and respectful. In sessions she helps people notice patterns, try practical experiments and practice new ways of communicating. To begin, readers are asked to confirm available session formats before booking and to use the matching process on the site to schedule a first appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches work online
Nanny uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early and current relationships shape emotional patterns and trust. This approach can help when abandonment, attachment issues or family of origin problems are causing repeated conflict or isolation.She also uses client-centred methods, which focus on listening and reflecting so people can make sense of their experience. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes in behaviour, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Choosing the right method is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which approaches to try and modify them as needed in later sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around parenting, work and daily routines. It also allows shorter check-ins when time is tight and reduces the need to travel for appointments. The therapist will discuss how to structure sessions so they fit practical needs and life demands.
