About

Eric Rangel Oliveira is an AASW-accredited mental health social worker who moved to Australia from Brazil eight years ago. With four years of clinical experience, he works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, compulsive behaviours, impulse control difficulties, relationship challenges, low self-esteem and trauma-related concerns, including LGBTIQA+ minority stress.

He offers psychotherapy to individuals dealing with substance use, obsessive-compulsive issues, trauma-stress-related problems and physical health challenges that affect mental well-being. Eric applies a trauma-informed, client-centred and non-judgmental approach to explore how past experiences shape the present, build resilience and support meaningful change. He aims to help people develop skills for mood regulation, manage anxiety and daily stressors, and improve interpersonal functioning.

Eric draws on a range of evidence-based methods, including trauma-informed care, a harm reduction approach, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), schema therapy, recovery-oriented cognitive therapy (CT-R), dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT) and mindfulness-based interventions. He provides therapy in both English and Portuguese and seeks to create a collaborative space where clients can strengthen coping abilities, enhance self-efficacy and work toward overall well-being through behavioural, contextual and lifestyle changes.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

Many people ask whether online therapy truly helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or major life transitions, online therapy has been found to be as effective as traditional in-person care. One major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the way that suits them best, using video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapeutic work into a busy life and to maintain continuity over time. Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and you have the option to switch therapists if you need a different match. For many people seeking support with everyday mental health challenges, online therapy is a practical, evidence-informed option that can be tailored to individual needs.
