Maja Popovic is a Psychologist based in Bankstown, NSW. She works out of Civic Tower, Level 8, Suite 3, 66-72 Rickard Road, Bankstown NSW 2200. Maja helps people who feel worn down, stuck, or overwhelmed, whether that shows up at work, at home, or in relationships.
Sessions are a mix of talking and practical support. Many people start with individual therapy when they want a calmer mind and clearer steps forward. That can be for stress, low mood, anxiety, relationship strain, or just the feeling that things have been building up for a while. Over time, therapy can help you understand what’s driving the stress and give you tools to cope day to day.
Maja also offers couples counselling. When communication breaks down, or when two people keep getting pulled into the same arguments, it can feel hard to see a way through. Couples therapy can help partners slow things down, hear each other better, and work on ways to move forward that feel realistic for your life.
Family therapy is another part of her work. Families can be loving and still struggle. Sometimes routines change, conflict builds, or everyone ends up coping in different ways. In family therapy, the focus is on improving how people relate, reduce tension, and support healthier patterns at home.
A big part of Maja’s approach includes stress management techniques. This might look like learning how to spot early signs of stress, then using simple strategies to bring things back under control. In many cases, small changes help—better pacing, calmer routines, and more helpful ways to handle tough moments. It’s not about “fixing” someone overnight. It’s about building skills you can use when life gets busy.
Maja speaks English and Serbian. That can make sessions feel more comfortable and grounded, especially for people who want support in the language that feels most natural.
In the room, she keeps things steady and down-to-earth. Sessions are for real life, not just theory. If you’ve been carrying things for weeks or months, it can help to get support, sort through what’s going on, and find a plan that fits your situation. If you’re not sure what type of session you need, starting with an individual appointment can often be a good first step, and then you can explore couples or family support if that becomes relevant.
