About Amalina
Amalina Yahya is an ACA counsellor and PACFA member in Australia with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem and coping with life changes. She also focuses on attachment issues, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, communication problems and family of origin issues.
Amalina uses a conversational style in sessions. She listens to what feels most pressing, then helps people map practical steps forward. Sessions aim to clarify patterns that started in childhood and how they show up now in relationships and parenting.
Her approach draws on person-centred ideas, psychodynamic perspectives and rational-emotive techniques. That means she pays attention to current feelings, early relationship patterns and the thoughts that keep problems repeating. Conversations move between understanding history and trying concrete ways to respond differently.
People who come for help with blended family issues or caregiver stress often work on communication and boundaries. Those dealing with emptiness, low self-esteem or young adult transitions focus on building daily routines and clearer self-talk. For someone coping with self-harm thoughts, sessions prioritise practical coping plans and reducing immediate risk while looking at longer term patterns.
Amalina works in English. She offers remote appointments through an online subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit
Amalina works from person-centred, psychodynamic and rational-emotive perspectives. Person-centred work focuses on what matters to the client now, using open conversation to identify goals and choices. Psychodynamic ideas look at patterns that began in early family relationships and how they repeat today. Rational-emotive techniques address unhelpful thoughts by testing and changing them, which can reduce anxiety and improve decision-making.Choosing the most useful approach is part of the work. Amalina collaborates with each person to test what helps most, adjusting methods as needs and goals change. That way the approach is decided together rather than fixed in advance.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a working day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit quieter conversations when video is not required or when a phone call is a better match for bandwidth or convenience. Appropriately qualified therapists can adapt exercises, communication practice and coping plans to work well across remote sessions.
