Dajana Sprajcer-Simeunovic , ACA

Dajana Sprajcer-Simeunovic is a licensed professional counsellor registered in Australia with 17 years of experience focused on trauma, crisis counselling and support for victims of crime. She has worked closely with individuals and families affected by family and domestic violence, childhood trauma, addiction, grief and loss, and relationship difficulties, offering steady guidance through intense life challenges.

Her practice emphasizes supportive psychotherapy aimed at reducing stress, easing anxiety and helping clients who feel sad or overwhelmed by change. Dajana helps clients explore how past experiences shape current thoughts, behaviours, emotions and relationships, and she supports practical steps toward improved mental and physical wellbeing. Her approach is holistic - person-centered, strength-based and trauma-informed - which means she meets each person where they are and builds on existing strengths to promote resilience.

Dajana understands that reaching out for help can be difficult, and she frames the first step as an act of courage. She is committed to offering empathetic support during that process and to helping clients find clearer understanding and more effective ways of coping with life’s challenges.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Support

Dajana uses person-centered therapy to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients lead the pace and focus of sessions - this approach helps with stress, anxiety and relationship concerns by fostering self-understanding and personal agency. She also draws on trauma-informed practices that recognize the impact of past harm and prioritize safety, pacing and effective coping strategies for those dealing with trauma, abuse or post-traumatic stress. Additionally, her strength-based orientation highlights existing resources and resilience to help clients navigate grief and major life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Dajana collaborates with each client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as trust and understanding grow so therapy remains responsive and person-centered.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These modalities make it easier to access care from home or on the go, allow for more timely check-ins when needed, and help maintain continuity of support even when in-person sessions are not possible.
