Ronika Martin, ACA

Ronika Martin is an ACA counsellor in Australia with seven years of experience helping people face difficult emotions and situations. She works with adults who are struggling with anger, addiction, relationship conflict, trauma, anxiety, depression and major life changes. She speaks English and Hindi and has worked across community settings and private practice.

Her background includes work in schools, community organisations, prisons including drug treatment units, NGOs, and outreach for people experiencing homelessness. She has run group therapy programs and provided one-to-one support for people dealing with addiction and emotional distress. This range of settings has shaped a practical approach to everyday problems.

Ronika frames many behaviours as coping strategies that made sense at one time but now cause problems. She helps people identify those patterns and practise different ways of responding. Sessions focus on straightforward tools rather than jargon, with step-by-step ideas you can try between meetings.

She uses several evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), plus Attachment-Based and client-centred approaches. These are used to address issues like anger, grief, low self-esteem, parenting stress and work strain. Therapy draws on clinical methods and lived experience to inform discussions.

People who choose Ronika can expect a practical, calm approach that emphasises noticing patterns and experimenting with new habits. If you prefer clear, concrete steps to manage frustration and improve relationships, her style is direct and task-focused.
