About

Sarah O’Sullivan began her career as a lived experience worker within Qld Health more than 15 years ago and understands firsthand the challenges of navigating mental health systems and securing appropriate supports when unwell.

Her own experience of chronic mental illness has strongly influenced her professional path and the way she engages with the people she supports. She holds the view that similar events can affect people in very different ways, and that each person follows a unique journey toward mental wellbeing.

Sarah has worked extensively across government and non-government agencies and has added advocacy support to her services. She produces complex reports for court and NDIS matters, and completes domestic violence perpetrator mapping using the domestic violence-informed Safe and Together model to assist with family court applications and related cases. She also provides functional capacity assessments utilising the Allen’s model of cognitive function.

Her main areas of interest include parenting and parental capacity building, chronic and complex mental health, addictions with relapse prevention planning, and recovery coaching. Sarah is based in Australia and provides non-religious, female-led therapeutic support.

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 comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.

One of the main benefits is flexibility - you can connect in the way that feels most comfortable, whether that is by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
