About Natalija
Natalija Stefanovic is a PACFA counsellor in Australia with four years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, motivation challenges, and anger. She also supports people dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, and depression.
Natalija keeps conversations straightforward. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps to reduce tension and reactivity. She listens for patterns that make anger or resentment build and helps people notice small changes that make a difference in daily life.
Sessions may include talking through triggers, practising short grounding or breathing techniques, and planning experiments to test new ways of responding. She pays attention to how work, career pressures and relationship patterns feed into stress and low mood. This can help people set realistic next steps at home or at work.
Natalija also works with concerns linked to identity and life change, including LGBT issues, immigration stress, fertility worries and chronic illness. She will talk through what matters most to each person and focus on manageable actions that fit their routine.
Her style is steady and practical. New clients are invited to describe what is hardest right now and what they want to try first. The emphasis is on improving everyday functioning and reducing moments of losing control, rather than on labels or guarantees.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Many evidence-based techniques focus on reducing reactivity and improving day-to-day coping. One common method involves short cognitive strategies that help people notice and reframe thoughts that fuel anger and anxiety. This helps with work stress, rumination and quick flare-ups.Another useful approach is skills-based practice for emotional regulation. That can include breathing or grounding exercises and brief behavioural experiments to try new responses in real situations. These are practical tools for reducing tension and testing what works outside sessions.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to identify which techniques suit their goals and preferences and adjust the plan as needed. Collaboration helps keep sessions focused and relevant to everyday problems.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as format details are not listed in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work or family life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists who work online aim to make sessions practical and usable in daily routines rather than lengthy theoretical discussions.
