About Nanny
Nanny Gomiero is an ACA counsellor in Australia with 10 years' experience supporting people through hard times. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting concerns and depression. She speaks English and Portuguese and uses conversational, direct sessions to help people untangle difficult patterns.
Nanny focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behaviours. She helps people notice attachment patterns, codependent habits and long-standing family of origin issues. Sessions often include straightforward conversations about boundaries, communication and the day-to-day impact of mood and anxiety.
Her approach borrows from Client-Centred work and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, so clients can expect both listening and practical strategies. Therapy can include looking at thoughts that keep problems going, and practising different ways of responding in relationships. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want help deciding on next steps and keeping changes going.
People come for help with abandonment fears, caregiver stress, isolation and a sense of emptiness. Nanny also works with immigration-related stress, guilt and shame, and the fallout from infidelity. She pays attention to how past family dynamics show up now, and she talks through what can be changed in everyday life.
If someone wants to start, the process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. The subscription-based sessions can be cancelled at any time. Nanny aims to keep session work clear, practical and focused on small, manageable changes.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current feelings and choices. It helps when trust, abandonment fears or dependent behaviour repeat in adult relationships. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood; sessions are led by what the client brings and aim to clarify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviours that keep anxiety and low mood going, offering concrete skills to test and change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That choice can shift as practical problems or new insights emerge, and adjustments are made together.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can help fit sessions around everyday life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or sessions that do not require travel. It also makes it easier to keep continuity of care when schedules or locations change. The focus remains on clear, usable tools for relationship patterns, mood and stress, shaped by the client's needs.
