Important Notice

There are some people that our counsellors can’t work with – not because we don’t want to, but because we want you to have the best possible care.

If you currently experience domestic violence, are having a mental health crisis, are experiencing severe substance dependency issues, or other acute crises, we can’t provide you with the level of support you deserve. However, we will use your initial appointment to connect you with places that specialise in these issues, so you can get the best possible care.
All Rough Patch counsellors manage their own scheduling and administration. Click on a profile below to read more and send an email enquiry. In the rare event you don’t hear from a counsellor within 24 hours, please call us on 02 7226 0809

All of our counsellors generously reduce their usual fees to provide affordable mental healthcare to our community. They do not receive government rebates or funding to provide their services.

Angela Soddu is a compassionate, down-to-earth, and highly experienced counsellor registered with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA). She provides inclusive and trauma-informed counselling to individuals across Australia, with a particular focus on online therapy that is accessible, affordable, and tailored to your unique needs.

Angela specialises in supporting people navigating anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, social isolation, and the long-term effects of trauma. She works with both young adults and older clients who may be experiencing life transitions, chronic stress, relationship difficulties, addiction recovery, or grief and loss. Angela also brings deep experience in working with neurodivergent individuals and people managing health challenges, helping them navigate daily life with increased resilience, confidence, and self-understanding.

Her practice is rooted in person-centred therapy and guided by neuro-affirming principles. Angela takes the time to truly understand what you’re experiencing, offering support that is empathetic, non-judgemental, and empowering. She works collaboratively with clients to build emotional insight, set boundaries, and reduce harmful thought or behaviour patterns. By supporting both emotional and physical healing, Angela helps you reconnect with yourself, strengthen relationships, and rediscover a sense of personal agency and wellbeing.

Angela also has significant experience working in school settings and community mental health contexts. She has supported students with neurodiversity, behavioural issues, and socio-emotional challenges, and worked closely with families, carers, and teachers to build supportive environments. Her understanding of neurodivergence is intersectional and strengths-based, helping clients build on their innate abilities while navigating a world that isn’t always inclusive.

Above all, Angela offers a safe(r) space for anyone who has faced marginalisation, stigma, or discrimination — whether based on cultural background, mental health, ability, gender identity, or life experience. She sees the counselling relationship as a collaborative partnership, where clients are invited to be themselves, at their own pace, without pressure or assumptions.

Angela offers online counselling sessions throughout the week, with availability on Mondays, Tuesday afternoons and evenings, Thursday afternoons, Fridays, and Saturday mornings and afternoons. Her services are suitable for anyone looking for a warm, reliable, and deeply respectful therapist who works from a lens of inclusivity, self-awareness, and personal growth.

Whether you’re dealing with the effects of trauma, navigating major life changes, or simply looking for someone who can truly listen and help you feel less alone, Angela is here to support you. Get in touch today to book an appointment or to find out more about her approach.
