About Ronika
Ronika Martin is an ACA counsellor based in Australia with seven years of experience supporting people through difficult life events. She works with adults facing addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting stress, anxiety, depression and related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and Hindi.
She has worked in schools, community organisations, prisons including drug treatment units, NGOs and private practice. That mix of settings means she is used to practical problems - managing strong emotions, coping with loss, and changing patterns that cause harm. She has also run group therapy and worked with people experiencing homelessness.
Ronika explains behaviours as often having started as coping strategies. She helps people identify which patterns still help, and which hold them back. Conversations are focused on noticing habits, deciding what matters now, and testing out different ways of responding.
Her practice draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside attachment-based and client-centred ideas. She uses those methods to look at thoughts, actions and relationships in ways that can be put into everyday life.
Practical concerns such as parenting, blended family issues, communication problems and caregiving stress are within her stated focus. She also lists work with ADHD, bipolar and chronic health challenges among her areas of experience.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify their values and take small practical steps that align with those values. It is often used for anxiety, low motivation, stress and patterns that get in the way of daily life.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behaviour changes to see what works in real situations.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and close relationships. It can be useful for intimacy-related issues, communication problems and understanding loyalty conflicts in blended households.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods that match their goals, preferences and the practical demands of their life. This may mean using ACT tools one week and CBT strategies the next, or spending time on attachment patterns where relationships are a main concern.
Confirm the session formats before booking as the site lists options during sign-up. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, care, travel or schooling. Some formats allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that better suits the day-to-day schedule. Appropriately qualified counsellors and therapists can adapt exercises and homework so progress translates into real life.
