About Scarlett

Scarlett Pragya is an AASW social worker with seven years of experience in Australia. She works with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns, and also supports people dealing with guilt and shame among other issues. Scarlett uses practical strategies alongside attention to how the body reacts to stress.

She keeps sessions direct and down to earth. Scarlett blends trauma-aware practice with tools people can use day to day. That includes breathwork, grounding, boundary-setting and routines to reduce overwhelm.

Scarlett pays attention to how thoughts and the body interact. She helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck and then try small, concrete changes. Sessions aim to connect feelings with manageable actions rather than only talking about problems.

Her work often includes attention to nervous-system regulation and mindfulness exercises. These are offered as practices people can use outside sessions to handle spikes of shame or guilt. Scarlett also brings moments of lightness when appropriate.

Clients come for many reasons - rebuilding after distress, navigating relationships, or making daily life easier. Practical skills and steady attention are central to her approach. Before booking, people should confirm current session options and formats.

How evidence-based approaches adapt to online sessions

Scarlett draws on trauma-aware practices that focus on nervous-system regulation and mindfulness. These approaches involve simple exercises such as breathwork and grounding to reduce overwhelming arousal, and they can help with post-traumatic stress, intense shame, and fast-changing emotions. She also uses practical behavioural strategies like boundary-setting and routine design. These techniques break down larger problems into small actions that change day-to-day patterns, which is useful for rebuilding after distress and for improving self-esteem. Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Scarlett will work collaboratively to try approaches that suit a person's needs, goals and preferences, and adjust them as progress is reviewed. The original biography did not list explicit session formats, so confirm available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travelling time. They can also let people practise grounding and breathwork in a familiar routine. Ask about current session formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
