Hello and welcome! My name is Chido, an accredited social worker based in Melbourne Australia. I’m a compassionate, person-centred therapist with experience supporting individuals across a range of life challenges, including health-related issues, relationship breakdown, domestic violence, sexual assault and abuse, drug & alcohol issues, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, infidelity, end-of-life counselling and bereavement.
I have a particular interest in working with young adults and young men and women, creating a safe and supportive space for growth, reflection, restoration and healing. My approach is warm, empathetic, and grounded in active listening — I believe that every person’s story deserves to be heard and valued.
As a Christian, my faith informs my commitment to offering care that is respectful, non-judgmental, and guided by hope and understanding. Whether you’re navigating a difficult season, managing complex emotions, or seeking clarity and confidence in your next steps, I’m here to walk alongside you with kindness, respect, and genuine support.

About online counselling

Online counselling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counselling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
