Rohan Holt

Rohan Holt is an AASW social worker with 27 years of professional experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and anger. He aims to meet each person where they are and create practical steps to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping. Rohan writes in plain language and focuses on useful, real-world strategies rather than jargon. Rohan works collaboratively, shaping conversations and plans around what matters to the individual. He listens for patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviour, then suggests techniques to try between sessions. Sessions often include straightforward exercises, goal setting and review of what has changed. His approach draws on a mix of evidence-informed methods, including cognitive and emotion-focused tools. He pays attention to attachment histories and how earlier relationships affect current reactions. This helps when anger or trust have become barriers to communication and wellbeing. Rohan treats each person with respect and sensitivity. He adapts the pace to match how ready someone feels to change. He supports people who want coaching-style direction as well as those who prefer a more reflective, client-centred style. Taking the first step can feel hard, and Rohan affirms that courage. He asks people to try small, manageable changes and to review what helps. If you are considering therapy, he asks you to choose the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to begin.

How Rohan’s approaches translate to online work

Rohan draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in ways that suit practical online work. ACT encourages noticing thoughts and taking small values-based actions, which can translate into simple exercises you try between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and helps people shift how they relate to others. Client-Centred Therapy emphasises respectful listening and following the person's lead to build trust and clarity. Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rohan will talk with you about your concerns, goals and what style feels most helpful. Together you can try an approach for a few sessions and adjust based on what produces useful change. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to use homework exercises, mindfulness practices and behavioural experiments between meetings. Appropriately qualified therapists can adapt these approaches so they remain practical and goal-focused when delivered remotely.
