About Mariano
Mariano Tabone is a PACFA credentialed counsellor in Australia with eight years of professional experience. He works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression. Mariano speaks English and Spanish and aims to help people take practical steps when social situations or personal doubts feel overwhelming.
He believes each person knows their story and brings strengths that can be used in change. In sessions he listens for what matters most to the client and focuses on clear next steps. He often helps people break down worries into manageable parts and practise skills that reduce day-to-day strain.
Mariano also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment issues, difficulties with communication, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. He assists with problems that follow separation, with guilt or shame, and with questions about life purpose or midlife shifts. He works with men on matters that commonly arise in midlife and relationship stress.
When physical health or long-term pain affects mood, Mariano will discuss how those issues interact and look at practical ways to manage them. He also covers concerns such as body image, caregiver stress, and impulsivity, focusing on small, achievable changes.
Initial steps usually start with a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session. Mariano aims to make sessions straightforward so people can focus on what they want to change next.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Mariano uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and personal strengths. One approach he draws on teaches people to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test them with real-life experiments, which can reduce worry and avoidance in social situations. Another common approach focuses on building small wellbeing routines and problem-solving steps to manage stress, mood and relationship tensions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Mariano will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and then experiment with methods that fit. The process is collaborative and may change as you notice what helps most.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, study, or family commitments and may allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. They also remove travel time and can help people try talking without needing to attend in person. Mariano will explain practical arrangements when you book so you can pick what suits your routine.
