About Meredith
Meredith Torpey is an ACA counsellor who focuses on practical support for stress, anxiety, trauma and grief. She helps people facing low self-esteem, career challenges and life transitions. Her approach is warm and respectful, and she works with each person to make a clear plan they can use day to day.
Meredith has 18 years of experience across trauma recovery, vocational rehabilitation and psychosocial disability. She has worked with people affected by sexual assault and abuse, prejudice and discrimination, and those living with chronic pain or long-term illness. Workplace issues and caregiver stress are also areas she commonly addresses.
In sessions she combines client-centred listening with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and mindfulness practices. She also uses solution-focused techniques and motivational interviewing to help people set achievable goals and notice progress. Conversations are tailored so people leave with simple strategies to try between meetings.
Meredith aims to make the first step straightforward. She supports people through grief and loss, and through rebuilding confidence after trauma. Her style is calm and practical, with attention to what matters most to each person.
Those seeking support are invited to discuss their current needs and preferences so Meredith can suggest a suitable plan and next steps.
How Meredith's approaches can work online
Meredith combines client-centred listening with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness tools. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and tailoring conversation to each person's needs, which helps people feel heard and understood. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviours to find practical ways to reduce anxiety and manage stress. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce overwhelm and improve focus.Finding the right approach is often a joint process. Meredith will discuss your goals and preferences and adjust techniques as you go. Together you can try different strategies and pick what fits your daily life and work demands.
