About Mariano

Mariano Tabone is a counsellor who works from a practical, evidence-based perspective. He focuses on men’s wellbeing alongside common concerns such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. Mariano encourages people to use their own strengths to move towards a more fulfilling life and offers steady, person-centred support during difficult times.

He has eight years of professional experience working in Australia and holds PACFA credentialing. Mariano frames the client as expert in their own story and helps them identify what has worked before and what can change. He aims to make each conversation straightforward and useful rather than overloaded with jargon.

Sessions often tackle relationship strain, attachment and communication problems. Mariano also addresses trauma and abuse, feelings of guilt or shame, and challenges around control or impulsivity. He works with issues like chronic pain, caregiver stress and life purpose in clear, goal-focused steps.

Mariano speaks English and Spanish, which can help bilingual clients explain complicated feelings in either language. He stresses small, achievable changes as a path out of isolation and low mood, and he supports people through midlife transitions and men’s issues without assuming one single solution.

People who contact him usually start by describing the problem they want to change. Mariano then helps translate that into manageable goals and a plan. He aims to make the first step easier and quieter so people can focus on what matters next.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care

Mariano uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps. One approach emphasises identifying current patterns that keep stress and anxiety active, then testing small changes to break those cycles. Another approach centres on building self-esteem and confidence through repeated, achievable tasks and reflecting on strengths learned from past successes.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques match their needs, goals and preferences. Together they will try methods and adjust them over time so the work fits the client's life and what they want to change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and save travel time. It also lets people join from different parts of Australia while keeping appointments consistent. Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats here. The focus is on practical access and making therapy a regular part of everyday life rather than on a particular delivery method.
