About Xin

Xin "Gloria" Guo is an AASW-accredited social worker based in Australia with six years of clinical experience. AASW accreditation indicates she is an accredited social worker in Australia, and she draws on a blend of evidence-informed therapies to support people through stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, and a wide range of life changes.

Her practice emphasizes a person-centered, strength-based, and trauma-informed approach. She works with individuals and families facing issues such as childhood and acute trauma, sexual assault aftermath, attachment difficulties, depression, addiction concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, career stress, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, dissociation, and intimacy or commitment difficulties.

Xin combines methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy to tailor care to each person’s needs. She is fluent in English and Mandarin, and integrates practical skills with reflective exploration to help clients build resilience and clearer direction. Her style aims to create a respectful, collaborative space where strengths are amplified and recovery-oriented goals are pursued.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Xin "Gloria" Guo draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify personal values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life even when difficult thoughts and feelings arise. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build practical skills for mood, anxiety, and behavior change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship that supports self-exploration and personal growth, particularly helpful for issues rooted in attachment, self-esteem, and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Xin works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds to ensure a good fit.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and access across different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit therapy into busy lives, and choose the format that feels most supportive for learning skills, processing experiences, and working toward change.
