About Shallu
Shallu Singh is an AASW counsellor who focuses on supporting people through stress, anxiety, family tensions, trauma and low self-esteem. She speaks English, Hindi and Punjabi and aims to make hard conversations feel manageable. Her style is warm and straightforward so parents and individuals can quickly see if she feels like a good fit.
Shallu uses narrative ideas to help people reframe difficult stories about themselves. She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy to identify values and small actions that build a steadier day-to-day life.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and conversational rather than heavy on jargon. Her work pays attention to attachment patterns and how early relationships shape current behaviour. That helps when people struggle with communication, trust or connection in their relationships.
She combines this with cognitive behavioural tools to address unhelpful thoughts and routines. Shallu has three years of professional experience in Australia and has supported people dealing with parenting strain, postpartum depression, migration stress and grief from abuse. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through painful memories and work on next steps.
People meet her to set clear, achievable goals and practice new ways of coping between sessions. She encourages small experiments and ongoing reflection so progress feels steady rather than all-or-nothing.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Shallu directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Shallu often blends Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online work. Narrative Therapy helps people tell a new story about difficult experiences so problems feel less defining. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on identifying personal values and taking small, values-based actions to improve daily life.She treats the choice of approach as a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, listening to what matters most and recommending approaches that suit those aims. Over a few sessions they review what helps and adjust the plan together so it fits the client’s needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let you use visual cues and longer conversation, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging can be useful for short check-ins, practical coaching or reflection between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and life commitments.
