More about Marijeta
- 13 years' experience
- Female
- AHPRA
I am a registered psychologist with over 13 years of experience supporting clients navigate life's various challenges. I have a PhD qualification and Masters degree in Psychology from the University of Adelaide. I am fully registered with AHPRA and have endorsement in Health Psychology. Throughout my career I have worked in both public and private mental health settings. I have also been involved with academic research and publication, but I feel that my passion lies in connecting with people via therapy.
I have worked with clients of all ages who experience anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, disability, chronic illness and burnout associated with work/life balance, parenting and general life transitions. I welcome clients of all identifications and orientations.
My therapeutic approach is person-centred, non-judgemental, and strengths-focused. I utilise evidence-based psychological therapies alongside mindfulness and practical strategies tailored to each person's needs and goals. I aim to help all of my clients to build their resilience and coping skills, improve their wellbeing and make lasting positive decisions and changes in their lives.
I understand that reaching out for psychological support can be daunting, and I aim to offer a welcoming platform where all of my clients can feel comfortable, heard and understood.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
