About David

David Garozzo-Vaglio is an AHPRA-registered clinician with seven years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, sleep problems and depression. He supports people facing life changes and works with concerns linked to chronic pain, ageing and mood difficulties. He speaks English, French and Italian and aims to make first contact straightforward and welcoming.

In sessions he listens first and tailors the conversation to each person. He focuses on practical steps you can try between meetings as well as the issues you bring to the room. The emphasis is on clear, respectful discussion and building strategies that fit your day-to-day life.

His background includes seven years of professional practice in Australia, where he developed experience with traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress and panic-related problems. He has also supported people dealing with process addictions such as gambling, exercise and porn, and with questions about life purpose and self-acceptance.

He approaches work with sensitivity to identity and difference, including LGBTQ+ related concerns, and adapts plans to suit individual needs. Conversations cover both short-term coping techniques and longer-term steps for change. He encourages people to prioritise small, achievable goals.

If you want a straightforward, practical approach to managing health-related challenges, he offers calm, respectful conversations and tailored plans. To begin, follow the site process to match with him and arrange a first session.

How specific approaches can help online

Evidence-based techniques focus on clear steps people can use in daily life. One common approach is problem-focused work that breaks difficulties into small, manageable tasks and practices. This helps with sleep problems, anxiety and the daily effects of chronic pain by giving practical tools to try between sessions.

Another approach is skills-based emotion work, which teaches ways to notice and respond to strong feelings without becoming overwhelmed. That kind of work is useful for panic attacks, mood difficulties and for people coping with major life changes or trauma symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan as they learn what helps most.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current 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, while still focusing on practical exercises and real-life problem solving. Appropriately registered clinicians use these methods to help people manage health-related challenges and everyday stresses.
