Background and approach

Dajana works from a person-centred, strength-based, trauma-informed framework. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address post-traumatic stress, guilt and shame, and the impacts of domestic violence. The emphasis is on safety, pacing, and the client's own goals.

Her style is gentle and direct. She listens first, then collaborates on practical strategies you can try between sessions. She also offers space to process grief, loss and the hard parts of relationship breakdown.

With 16 years of experience in trauma and crisis counselling in Australia, Dajana brings a steady presence to each meeting. She speaks English and Serbian, and aims to make sessions straightforward and useful for everyday life.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Person-centred work focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. It helps when someone needs a calm space to talk, process emotions, and decide on personal goals. Trauma-informed care emphasises pacing and safety; it helps people who have experienced abuse or violence to move through distress at a manageable speed.

These approaches are described and adjusted together. The therapist will work with each person to choose techniques that match their needs and goals. That collaborative process makes it easier to try different tools and see what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversations and reading non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or video feels tiring. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, step-by-step coaching and people who prefer written communication. Together these options offer flexibility for busy schedules, quieter surroundings and different communication preferences.
