Rohan Holt, AASW

Rohan Holt is an AASW counsellor with 27 years of experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and anger. He works with clients who want practical support and coaching to handle difficult moments. He aims to offer straightforward, respectful care and meet people where they are. Taking the first step is often the hardest, and he encourages anyone who is ready to begin.

Rohan adapts the way he talks and plans therapy to each person’s needs. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, practical steps that can be used between meetings. He uses approaches that help people notice thoughts and feelings, improve communication, and rebuild safe connections.

Over nearly three decades he has helped people navigate a wide range of issues. These include attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family and communication problems, body image and caregiver stress, chronic illness and ageing issues, and challenges like codependency or commitment worries. He also works with people affected by adoption and foster care experiences and antisocial or avoidant personality patterns.

Rohan draws on methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. He keeps sessions practical and grounded to suit busy lives. If you want to explore whether his approach fits you, he invites you to take the next step and start a conversation.

He practices in Australia and conducts sessions in English.

How these approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and commit to actions that match their values. It can suit stress, anxiety and life changes where behaviour and values need attention. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people build more secure ways of relating. It is useful for relationship strain, abandonment concerns and attachment difficulties. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns by teaching practical tools for everyday situations like anxiety and anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rohan will work with each person to choose or combine methods that match their goals, preferences and circumstances. He treats the decision as collaborative and adjusts the plan as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use techniques in the contexts where problems occur, such as practising communication skills at home.
