Tegan Nedelkos brings more than ten years of experience supporting people with diverse needs. She is an Accredited Social Worker and holds membership with the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW), a credential that reflects her professional training and commitment to social work standards.

Using a strengths-based, person-centred approach, she works collaboratively with clients to build a therapeutic relationship where concerns can be explored and understood. Tegan is trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and draws on the practical tools of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and mindfulness-based approaches to help people develop clearer pathways forward.

Her practice covers a range of difficulties, with experience addressing anxiety and depression, trauma and relationship conflict. By combining evidence-informed techniques with a focus on clients' strengths and values, she aims to support meaningful change and goal attainment. Tegan offers a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to unpack what may be underpinning their current concerns and to design a tailored plan for moving ahead.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, then focus on actions that align with their values to build a more meaningful life. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood and challenges with motivation.

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) offers practical skills to identify and change unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns, supporting improvements in symptoms of anxiety and depression and in everyday functioning. Mindfulness-based techniques complement these approaches by teaching attention skills and present-moment awareness, which can reduce reactivity and support emotion regulation following trauma or relationship stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tegan works with clients to identify which techniques fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting methods as progress is made so the plan feels personally relevant and achievable.

Online sessions via video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to access therapy from different locations and to fit sessions around work, family and other commitments. These options offer flexibility in scheduling and allow therapists and clients to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
