Oliver de Nicolai is an ACA-registered professional counsellor providing confidential, evidence-based support through Employee Assistance Programs. Oliver works with adults experiencing workplace stress, psychological strain, anxiety, anger, intrusive thoughts, emotional overload, and relationship difficulties. He also supports couples, recognising the strong connection between personal relationships and workplace wellbeing. With experience spanning frontline policing, corporate environments, and private practice, Oliver brings a grounded understanding of the pressures faced by employees in high-demand roles. His approach is calm, practical, and focused on helping people stabilise during periods of stress, regain emotional regulation, and respond more effectively to challenges at work and in life. Clients often describe Oliver as an attentive and thoughtful listener who creates a safe, non-judgemental space. He supports people to slow down, clarify what is contributing to their distress, and develop insight into patterns of thinking and behaviour that may be keeping them stuck. Oliver works collaboratively with clients to identify unhelpful coping strategies and build more effective ways of managing thoughts, emotions, and stress responses. His focus is on helping people reconnect with their values, improve emotional steadiness, and restore a sense of agency and direction. His therapeutic approach is flexible and client-centred, drawing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, tailored to individual needs and workplace contexts. Oliver is committed to ethical, professional practice and provides counselling that supports wellbeing, resilience, and sustainable change within and beyond the workplace. www.bluehealerscounselling.com.au
