About David

David Garozzo-Vaglio is an AHPRA-registered practitioner with seven years of professional experience in Australia. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, sleeping difficulties, depression and the challenges of life changes. He also supports people concerned about ageing, chronic pain and disability, and questions about life purpose.

In sessions he focuses on clear, practical conversation. He listens to what is causing strain now and helps people try small changes that can make daily life more manageable. He talks about symptoms like panic attacks, phobias and process addictions in straightforward terms so clients understand what to expect.

He draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood disorders, post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury effects. Sessions include problem-focused work and strategies for coping with chronic illness and pain. He also helps people rebuild self-regard and work on self-love when depression or loss of direction are present.

David adapts discussion and planning to each person’s concerns. He explains options and uses practical steps rather than abstract theories. That approach is intended to help people experiment with new ways of responding to daily stress and to test what feels useful.

He can carry conversations in English, French or Italian. People interested in starting are encouraged to confirm current session options before booking so they know the most up-to-date arrangements.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

David uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common form is cognitive-style work that helps people notice and test unhelpful thoughts, and then try new behaviours to reduce anxiety or low mood. This approach is useful for panic, phobias and everyday worry.

Another approach he applies targets coping with chronic pain, illness and life transitions. It blends pacing, activity planning and acceptance-based skills so people can manage symptoms while staying connected to meaningful daily tasks. That style can help with sleep problems and adjustment after health changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will discuss options with clients and choose methods together based on needs, goals and preferences. The plan can be adjusted over time as people see what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also accommodate different languages such as English, French and Italian depending on the practitioner’s offerings.
