Counselling & Somatic Bodywork Therapies
CAMERA MODE/ANGLE
You do not need to have the camera on, however for new people to the online sessions I recommend that you have the camera on for at least the first few sessions so that I can offer postural support if needed via email. If using the camera you will need to setup your computer and camera so that it can show your whole body sitting on a yoga mat. A side ways angle is usually the best. Please make sure you are not too far away and that there is adequate lighting.
THE SESSIONS
Each session you will need the ZOOM meeting number.
We will use the one meeting number for the 6 sessions. Please plan to login 5-10mins before each class start time so as to prepare and allow space for any technical issues that may come up.

Testimonials
Counselling
Andrea, VIC
I cannot express enough gratitude for the support I received from Marika. After the loss of my partner, I found Marika's counselling and bodywork services, which proved to be a foundational element to my healing process. The integration of counselling with body work was an amazing combination, I have had relaxation and remedial massage as well as complementary therapies including connective tissue therapy, Egyptian facial release and charka-puncture. Marika's warm way of engaging and her ability to carefully read what support is required is extremely intuitive. I continue to see Marika on a regular basis for treatments.
Lisa, Melbourne
Marika is a kind, compassionate and transparent counsellor, she has a beautiful heart that raidiates through everything she does and brings a genuine love and joy to her work. When I first met Marika I was struggling with loss of executive function, panic attacks and anxiety related aggression after a critical incident at work. I was very reluctant to go see her as I had been sent to counselling a lot as a child and had grown to hate it. I definitely would have considered myself a sceptic. But Marika helped me learn how to regulate my nervous system. Not only gaining back my executive function but the panic attacks are gone as well and I am also becoming less overstimulated and generally more gentle both at work and at home with my kids. I am incredibly greatful for her influence in my life and would reconmended her to anyone who wants to take a holistic approach to their mental health.

This process has been life-changing. I had no idea that within 6 weeks I could have a grip on my finances and have an end date to my credit card debt. Thank you Marika for your support throughout this process.
It has been invaluable.
Sonja, Denmark
How awesome it is when someone supports you to unleash your potential. Your are doing great work, Marika.
It has been an absolutely joyous process – I knew when I signed up that it would be far more than changing words on a page – and was not disappointed.
Thank you for the absoluteness and steadiness you held each of the sessions in and also in between – never wavering when I had things come up.
I really don’t know what’s next, but can feel the opening to be open to what may be next – without trying to control that process.
Susie, Melbourne
Marika has an amazing ability to hold the space, read what is truly going on and reflect and discuss what is needed, in a loving and supportive manner. Her support over the past few years has been invaluable and I highly recommend what she offers and brings to others.
