ABOUT

My name is Barbara Zoroddu.
I created A Friend in Melbourne so that psychological support and the development of awareness could be a possibility for everyone, not just a luxury for the few.
I am passionate about helping women to navigate the multi dimensional human experience with greater intention, and understanding of self. To do this I use a range of mind & body tools: holistic Counseling, Mindfulness, Breathwork, EFT (emotional freedom techniques).

Counseling is a helping relationship, where a client (not a patient) seeks specific support in overcoming a problem in their present life. This is a targeted intervention and generally has a short duration.

Mindfulness means awareness. It means paying attention, but in a particular way: a) with intention, b) in the present moment, c) in a non-judgmental way ”. It can also be described as the ability to fully live one’s present life, in the here and now. Whether you are looking for help to overcome a problem or want to embark on a path of personal growth, this is the right place for you. WELCOME!

Counseling has literally changed my life. It showed me that anyone, if put in the right conditions, can overcome difficulties, flourish and reach his/her potential, in life and in work.
Mindfulness and EFT have helped me enrich my life: “The future and the past are two thieves who steal your present” someone said. It is true: the present is the only dimension of full and possible well-being.

I completed my studies in Italy and other European countries and many years after my first master degree in languages, I specialised in Body Mediation Counseling, aka Breathwork Counseling, a holistic approach that uses Mindfulness techniques and is based on the awareness that we are mind, body and spirit. Every part of us is connected and the breath is the main connecting tool. Do you want more info on how I work?

Counseling is a helping relationship, where the Counselor works with a client (not a patient) who seeks specific support in overcoming a problem in his present life. I work alongside Counseling, Breathwork, Mindfulness and EFT (emotional freedom) techniques, to develop precious resources to carry with you in life, every day.
Un' Amica in Melbourne is also a physical (and virtual) place, a welcoming and protected space where listening is profound and respectful and where you can find support in complicated moments. In Italian and English. Whatever your nationality, your emotions speak your language.

Maybe you are having a complicated time, or you just want to improve some aspects of your life. Something that worries you is happening right now but you don’t know where to start to fix it. You don’t know exactly what Counseling is but you wonder if it could be an option for you. Maybe you have already tried but your strategies have proved ineffective. You have thought many times about booking a session, but between work, love and the complicated life of every day, you have not found the time to take care of yourself in the right way. Or maybe you thought that asking for this kind of help is the same as being sick and you felt a sense of embarrassment or shame. You must admit that it would be a great relief to talk to an aid professional who knows how to listen and does not make you feel guilty. A person who supports you in your path of awareness and who shares and promotes your goals. But can you afford it economically? Whatever the reason is holding you back, I’m glad you’re here. Now you can begin a sustainable practice of well being. We all have the right / duty to invest in our physical and mental wellbeing.
