About

Bárbara Leal Reis is a psychologist trained in Brazil and a registered Counsellor in Australia, with over 7 years of experience across counselling, clinical psychology, neuropsychology, and sports psychology.

Her work includes supporting women affected by abusive relationships and domestic violence, and providing care for neurodivergent people, particularly those with ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder. She also has extensive experience helping people manage anxiety, stress, burnout, trauma, and depression, and in addressing challenges related to motivation, self-esteem, and emotional regulation.

As an immigrant herself, Bárbara understands the particular challenges involved in adapting to a new culture, building support networks, and negotiating identity and belonging in a different country. She brings that perspective into her practice to offer compassionate support to clients facing the complexities of migration and cultural adjustment.

Her approach is client-centered and evidence-based, creating a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where each person feels welcomed and respected. Bárbara draws on strategies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychoeducation, and mindfulness techniques, tailoring interventions to each individual’s needs.

Taking the first step to seek support is recognised as an act of courage, and Bárbara is committed to walking alongside clients to help build personal strength, overcome challenges, and create a more balanced, healthy, and meaningful life.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person care.

One major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care.

All therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists at any time if they need a different fit. Online therapy can be a practical and effective way to access support for many everyday mental health and relationship concerns.
