      <image:title>Home - You can REBEL</image:title>
      <image:caption>I believe that our society is ill-equipped and is not designed to support healthy individualism and psychological sovereignty.   Every individual who chooses to walk the path of self-discovery and authenticity is engaging in a rebellious act. I teach my clients how to REBEL! (Reclaim Energy Balance Ego Love)</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - About Ivana</image:title>
      <image:caption>Born in Croatia, I was a teenager when Yugoslavia fell apart from the war during the 90’s. I remember my deep contemplation of human behaviour at this time. Ever since then, I have been fascinated by the human Psyche. Those early experiences, along with others later in life, inspired me to pursue an M.D. in Counselling and Applied Psychotherapy, and I now use my extensive life experience combined with the academic knowledge to assist and motivate individuals to live happier and more authentic lives.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - My mission</image:title>
      <image:caption>My mission is to help promote psychotherapy from a different angle; to switch the focus from psychotherapy as a practice concerned with the treatment of the sick into a practice that is focused more on higher development of personality. We tend to see a therapist only when we reach a critical point, displaying symptoms of : stress, anger, depression, frustration, suicidal tendencies, unhealthy eating habits , addiction, low self-image etc. Awareness of mental health maintenance as an accepted societal norm, or health practice would drastically reduce the inevitability of reaching that state.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - Self work</image:title>
      <image:caption>It is obvious, looking at this situation that in our society very little emphasis or encouragement is given to an individual to engage in self work. The world that we live in is mostly focused on consumerism and chasing economic status. This places a huge amount of pressure on the individual, who via the educational system is only offered limited support with emotional coping strategies.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Bio - Ivana Đirlić Šindija is a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ivana began her healing study 24 years ago in Croatia. Life circumstances brought her to Australia in 2003, where she continued to develop a career as an energetic bodyworker and holistic counsellor. After the birth of her daughter in 2010, severe post-natal depression changed the course of Ivana’s life. Ultimately this “dark night of the soul” was a catalyst which deepened her compassion and insight into the self. From that point on, Ivana’s focus has been on mental health. In her psychotherapeutic practice Ivana utilizes both an existentialist and Jungian framework. She believes we are independent individuals with the developmental task of individuating and moving beyond the socio-cultural labels imposed upon us. Her work aims to help individuals claim their psychological sovereignty and includes a special interest in facilitating this process in young adults. Ivana holds a Masters degree in Counselling and Applied Psychotherapy from Torrens University Australia, a Master of Arts in Croatian Literature from the University of Zadar, Croatia, and a Diploma in Energetic Healing.</image:caption>
