About Mariano
Mariano Tabone works with practical, evidence-based techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety and low mood. He draws on eight years of professional experience and uses a straightforward, supportive style. Mariano speaks English and Spanish and practices in Australia as a PACFA counsellor.
Mariano focuses on everyday problems that can feel overwhelming. He helps people address relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, and motivation. He also supports those facing issues like abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and midlife challenges.
How Mariano works
Sessions aim to make change manageable and concrete. Mariano listens to each person’s story and highlights strengths to build on. Conversations usually lead to clear steps people can try between sessions to feel steadier and more in control.
He works with people on communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness. He also supports men navigating life transitions and questions of purpose. Mariano’s approach is collaborative.
He helps people set goals and chooses strategies that suit their situation and pace. Taking the first step can feel hard, and he offers calm, practical support through that process.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Many of Mariano’s sessions draw on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on present-day problems and practical strategies. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thinking and test more balanced ways of thinking; this can reduce anxiety and low mood by changing everyday habits. Another approach focuses on building safer, more reliable ways of relating to others and repairing communication problems after conflict or trauma. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mariano will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as things change. Online therapy offers flexibility for people juggling busy lives. Video calls let you have a fuller face-to-face conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, daily tracking, or when a written record of thoughts is helpful. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caring duties or study commitments and still follow a consistent plan.Start online instead of waiting
