About Francesca
Francesca Tondi is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationships, family strain, parenting challenges and depression. She speaks English and Italian and brings 13 years of professional experience to sessions. Francesca aims to create a respectful, sensitive space for people taking steps towards change.
She has worked with issues such as attachment and abandonment, communication problems, guilt and shame, and midlife questions. Her background includes facilitation of Tuning into Teens, which informs her work with parent-child relationships. Francesca uses what she learns from clients to tailor conversations and practical plans for each person.
Francesca describes counselling as walking alongside someone. She focuses on understanding each person’s situation and on practical steps that can make daily life easier. Expect direct conversation about goals, small experiments to try between sessions, and adjustments as needs change.
Her style values compassion and respect. Francesca draws on psychological knowledge and years of practice to support people working through pain, chronic illness challenges, or caregiver stress. She also helps people thinking about life purpose or dealing with isolation.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Francesca uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques adapted to each person’s needs. One common approach she draws on focuses on understanding attachment and relationship patterns, which helps when people want to improve communication or manage fear of abandonment. Another strand emphasises practical coping strategies for anxiety and stress, teaching simple tools to reduce overwhelm and handle daily pressures.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Francesca will discuss options with clients, listen to goals and preferences, and recommend ways of working that fit the person’s situation. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress unfolds.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm available formats before booking since the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people join from different locations within Australia, while the therapist and client work together on practical strategies suited to remote sessions.
