Hi
there!
My
name is Marta.
If
I am not your counsellor, then I would love to be. I do offer telehealth and/or face-to-face outreach counselling.
I
have been in private practice for the past 5 years. Before that, I worked
for a few respected organisations such as; Parramata Mission and Life Without
Barriers in the Mental Health and Disability sector for more than 25 years. It has been an honourable journey of learning
and walking alongside the people living with chronic mental health conditions
and disabilities.
The human mind can detect danger, evaluate situations,
problem-solve, and even predict some outcomes when it is functioning well.
However, when those same logical abilities are turned within the brain, the
individual may feel trapped, and even the most basic problems begin to feel
overwhelming and difficult to solve. That is where Counselling steps in.
Whilst
my approach to counselling is holistic, I do have a special niche in the
application of Trauma-Informed Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy,
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and DV support and Advocacy.
My
private practice is also NDIS registered and supports all plans, including Self-Managed,
Plan Managed and NDIA.
In addition to the English language, I also speak Portuguese and have a great understanding of French and Spanish.
Why
not get in touch with me to find out how I can best support you!
Thank
you for taking the time to visit my page.
