Narelle Gibbs is a psychologist based in Croydon, NSW. Her practice is a Telehealth Only Clinic in Croydon NSW 2132, so appointments happen online from home or anywhere with a decent internet connection.
In individual counselling sessions, Narelle helps people work through day to day stress and the things that build up over time. Many people seek support when anxiety shows up, when sleep and worry start to interfere with life, or when emotions feel harder to manage than they used to.
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a big part of the way Narelle works. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. Instead of trying to “fix everything” at once, sessions often look at small, practical changes that can be tried between appointments. In many cases, that makes it easier to notice what triggers distress and how to respond differently.
Stress management is another key focus. Sessions may include learning simple stress tools that can be used in real life, like grounding skills and calm routines. Relaxation exercises can also be part of the plan, especially when the body feels on edge or when it is hard to switch off after a busy day.
For some clients, the aim is to feel steadier day to day. For others, it is more about getting through a tough stretch and building confidence in how to cope. At times, people just want a place where it is okay to talk things through, without judgment and without pressure to have all the answers.
Because the sessions are telehealth only, Narelle’s clinic can suit people who prefer the comfort of staying at home, or who find it hard to get to face to face appointments. It also means more flexibility for regular check-ins, which can help keep momentum going as changes take shape.
Overall, Narelle’s work with individuals is grounded, practical, and focused on support that fits real routines. With CBT strategies, stress management techniques, and relaxation exercises, the sessions aim to help people understand what is going on for them, and then make small steps that feel doable.
