About Me

Hello and welcome!
 

I’m Natasha Dardo, a psychologist and the Director of Whole Health Freedom. I’m passionate about creating a space where people feel safe, understood, and hopeful as they navigate life’s ups and downs. I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds, supporting many concerns such as anxiety, mood difficulties, and trauma-related symptoms.
 

I founded Whole Health Freedom because I believe true wellbeing comes from balance and caring for all parts of ourselves: mind, body, and spirit. My vision is to create a holistic space where people can access genuine, approachable health professionals and receive whole-person care.​

Over the past few years, I’ve worked in schools, clinics, private practices, and other therapeutic services, supporting people of all ages, though with a passion for helping young people and their families build insight, resilience, and life skills.

My current roles are with:

• Headspace: Providing therapy for individuals aged 12 to 25;

• Berwick College: Conducting assessments to support students, families, and the school;

• Berry Street Victoria: Providing trauma-informed care for vulnerable children and adolescents; and 

• Whole Health Freedom: Providing individual therapy and assessments, and referring to other supports when needed.

​​

I have completed 10 years of tertiary study, alongside ongoing professional development, and I’m currently completing the Clinical Registrar Program on my path toward endorsement as a Clinical Psychologist!

​​

Outside of work, you’ll often find me spending time with family and friends, exploring the outdoors, hiking, playing soccer, or simply enjoying quiet moments alone. To me, freedom means having a peaceful mind, unburdened by fear, doubt, or expectation. It means creating the world you want to live in, pursuing your dreams and having the confidence to just be yourself.

​

At Whole Health Freedom, my mission is simple: to support you in caring for yourself wholly, so your mind, body, and spirit can flourish in this life.
