Mariano Tabone, PACFA

Mariano Tabone is credentialed in Australia and brings 8 years of professional experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and struggles with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

He approaches work with the belief that each person is the expert on their own story and that personal strengths are central to overcoming life challenges. Mariano helps clients identify and build on those strengths while developing practical strategies to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Mariano holds PACFA credential, indicating recognition by a national Australian counselling federation. He welcomes clients who are ready to take steps toward change and offers steady, nonjudgmental support throughout the therapeutic process.

Recognising that beginning therapy requires courage, Mariano provides a supportive space where clients can explore goals, navigate transitions, and work toward a more fulfilling and satisfying life.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care

Mariano uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on building practical coping skills to reduce stress and manage anxiety. These skill-based approaches teach pacing, problem-solving, and emotion regulation strategies that help clients feel more in control of day-to-day challenges.

He also applies relational and attachment-focused methods to address relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, and communication problems. These approaches explore patterns in close relationships and support clients in developing healthier relational habits and greater self-awareness.

For clients affected by trauma and abuse, Mariano incorporates trauma-informed techniques that prioritize safety and gradual processing, allowing people to work at a pace that suits them while reducing the intensity of distressing memories.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Mariano works with each person to identify therapeutic methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for those seeking flexibility and accessibility. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can engage in consistent care without long commutes, better fit sessions into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of support from licensed professionals and therapists regardless of location within Australia.
