About Rohan
Rohan Holt is an AASW counsellor with 27 years of professional experience. He helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and problems with anger. He writes in a straightforward way and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure.
Rohan keeps conversations practical and respectful. He listens first, then shapes a plan around what each person actually needs. Sessions focus on clear goals, small changes that build over time, and practical skills to use between meetings.
Rohan uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy among others. These approaches are used to help with managing difficult thoughts, improving communication, and working through painful experiences. He adapts those methods to suit each person's situation rather than following a one-size-fits-all script.
His work also covers issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiving stress, chronic illness and body image. Rohan aims to help people find more steadiness and clearer ways to cope in day-to-day life.
He treats each person with sensitivity and compassion and tailors conversations to what you say matters most. If you are ready to take the next step he encourages you to begin the short matching process and schedule a session.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that matter to them. It can help with anxiety, stress and finding direction when values feel unclear. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful cycles, which is useful for anxiety, anger and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centres on understanding emotions and improving important relationships by changing how people respond to each other.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rohan treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss which methods seem most useful for your goals. Together you can try a method and adjust it as you go if something feels less helpful.
If you prefer to meet online please confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce time spent travelling, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find exercises, homework and skill practice translate well to remote sessions, and approach choice can be adapted to suit the online setting.
