Angela Jakovac, AHPRA

Angela Jakovac is credentialed with AHPRA, the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency, and brings 20 years of professional experience to her therapeutic work. She supports people navigating stress and anxiety, the pain of grief and loss, challenges with motivation, low self-esteem and confidence, and career-related difficulties. Her practice also addresses communication problems, loneliness, and social anxiety and phobia.

Angela approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, adapting conversations and treatment plans to reflect individual circumstances and goals. She emphasizes practical strategies alongside emotional understanding to help clients rebuild confidence and find clearer direction in work and relationships. Starting therapy can require real courage, and she acknowledges the significance of that first step while offering steady, tailored support throughout the process.

Clients who work with Angela can expect a collaborative, person-centered approach that honors their unique history and priorities. She aims to create a therapeutic plan that fits the client rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all model, helping people move toward improved coping, clearer communication, and greater wellbeing over time.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Angela integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside mindfulness practices to support clients in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms of stress, anxiety, and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people explore and understand emotional responses and attachment patterns, which can improve relationships and lessen social anxiety and isolation. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation, which is often helpful for grief, stress, and ongoing worry.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Angela collaborates with each person to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made so the plan remains responsive and personalized.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone, and options for live chat or text-based messaging allow clients to engage in ways that fit their schedules and comfort levels. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches effectively online, making it easier to access consistent support from home or work while maintaining a therapeutic focus on meaningful change.
