About Grace
AASW social worker with 4 years of experience. Grace Tiri helps people manage stress, anxiety, eating and food-related issues, bipolar disorder, depression and life changes. She works in English and Swahili and is based in Australia.
Grace puts the person’s experience first and treats them as the expert in their own story. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use between meetings. She uses straightforward approaches such as client-centred work, cognitive behavioural tools, mindfulness and skills from dialectical behaviour therapy to address mood and panic symptoms.
Her sessions include talking through current problems, noticing patterns that keep difficulties going, and practising small changes. For eating or body image concerns she combines behavioural strategies with conversations about meaning and identity. When people face major life changes she helps them break decisions into manageable steps and weigh options calmly.
Grace draws on motivational interviewing techniques to clarify what a person wants to change and to build practical momentum. She adapts pace and focus depending on whether someone needs short-term coping skills or longer exploration of beliefs that cause guilt, shame or disconnection. Multicultural issues and immigration-related stress are acknowledged and discussed directly.
People who contact Grace begin by completing a short questionnaire and then scheduling a first session. She explains how therapy will work and agrees on goals and tasks for the next few sessions. Ongoing plans are reviewed regularly so the work remains relevant and realistic.

Therapeutic approaches used in remote work
Grace commonly uses cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy skills in session. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying small behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. DBT skills teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance and interpersonal effectiveness to manage intense mood swings or panic attacks.She also draws on client-centred principles, which mean she asks about a person’s priorities and follows their lead when deciding goals. Finding the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review what helps and adjust methods to suit the person’s needs and preferences.
Practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting appointments into a busy week and reducing travel time. Because the exact session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Grace will discuss how sessions will run, agree on goals, and suggest which techniques to focus on so the work fits into everyday life.
