About Scarlett
Scarlett Pragya is an AASW social worker with seven years of practice in Australia. She works with people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns. Scarlett also addresses life purpose, isolation, body image, and the effects of chronic illness and pain.
Her style is grounded and humane. Sessions focus on both feelings and practical skills. She uses breathing and grounding techniques, boundary-setting, and routines to help with day-to-day functioning.
Scarlett pays attention to how the nervous system affects thinking and behaviour. That means checking for overwhelm, pacing conversations, and adding simple regulation practices. The aim is to make changes that feel manageable and real in daily life.
She helps people notice and shift unhelpful patterns. Work often involves examining attachment and abandonment themes, communication habits, and responses rooted in past harm. There is time for emotional processing alongside building new skills for clearer thinking and steadier behaviour.
Scarlett also supports people navigating cultural and immigration issues, sexual assault and domestic violence impacts, and grief tied to guilt or forgiveness. Conversations are direct and practical, with occasional lightness. She asks questions that help clarify what matters next and how to take the next small steps.
Therapeutic approaches and online work
Scarlett uses evidence-based techniques that address both body and thought patterns. One approach focuses on nervous-system regulation through breathwork and grounding. These techniques help reduce overwhelm and improve how people notice and respond to stress in daily moments. Another approach centres on practical skill-building such as boundary-setting and routine design to change unhelpful behaviour and make everyday life more manageable.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Scarlett discusses options with each person and decides together which techniques to try based on the person’s goals, concerns and preferences. That collaboration helps make sessions feel purposeful rather than random.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, require less travel, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. It can also let people use audio-only sessions if video is difficult or save bandwidth. Practical scheduling and format choices are discussed during the initial matching and when arranging appointments.
