Sabina Jugurnauth , ACA

Sabina Jugurnauth is an experienced therapist based in Australia who combines formal training with a collaborative, client-focused practice. She holds a Master in Psychotherapy and Counselling from Western Sydney University and a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Mauritius, and she is currently completing an MA in Psychology (Clinical). She also holds the ACA credential, a professional counselling qualification. Sabina offers therapy in English and French and brings six years of clinical experience to her work.

Sabina has supported a wide range of clients facing challenges such as family and domestic violence, chronic pain, and the aftermath of road accidents. She works with people experiencing PTSD, depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns, and she provides practical techniques for coping with life changes, managing stress, improving sleep quality, and building healthier self-esteem. She also addresses workplace difficulties and partners with couples to transform conflict into renewed connection. Sabina approaches therapy as a collaborative process - she treats clients as the experts in their own lives, helping them clarify goals, explore difficult issues, and unfold their unique stories. Her aim is to equip individuals with skills to break old patterns and to develop a personal approach that supports sustained growth and resilience.

Therapeutic approaches and the convenience of online care

Sabina integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on the client as the expert in their own life, creating a supportive space for exploration and personal growth and helping with issues like self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns. CBT is a structured, skills-based approach that helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep difficulties. She also draws on emotionally-focused therapy to support couples - this approach helps partners understand emotional responses and rebuild connection when communication and attachment have become strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sabina works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies as progress is made. Licensed professionals and therapists use this kind of flexibility to tailor care to each client.

Online sessions - whether by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These options increase flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and allow people to access consistent support from home or elsewhere, while maintaining the same therapeutic focus and collaborative planning Sabina brings to in-person work.
