who I am
My name is Anton and I am the founder of Ef Zin. I am an accredited counsellor and my experience as a wellbeing practitioner through the years includes a range of roles, from developing educational recovery-oriented courses to community development and from outreach services to assisting with individual recovery plans.
I believe that personal transformation starts through a combination of readiness, intention, action and acknowledgement of past experiences and I would like to share a few of mine.
My lived experience of anxiety and depression and my recovery journey informed me and motivated me to contribute to improve mental health and wellbeing of people. For the past eight years, I have been sharing all the tools and strategies that people can apply in order to improve their own wellbeing. Through my work I motivate and support people to cultivate a new understanding: They can choose to be anything they want by just trusting and building on that inner voice and being open to possibilities.

I have had the privilege to work in several different settings that I believe provided me with a unique ability to relate to my clients.
My years working for Mind Australia, Prahran Mission and Beyondblue have provided me with a great insight into the person’s individuality and hidden potential. I have watched and participated in the recovery journey of many, their joy and sadness, their challenges and empowerment, their resistance and hopes, their journey from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset.
Through my experience in grief and bereavement, I’m diving deep into the souls of people, exploring their most sincere truth and fear and helping them create meaning through the pain.
And as a small business owner, I am also aware of the daily war that is fought to keep afloat. I know the fears and anxieties taking risks on an idea and a dream, and the passion that fuels the “long hours of doing everything”. And I know the pain of failure is better than living with the knowledge that you never tried.
Coming to Melbourne from Greece has made me aware of how a goal and an intention when combined can lead to the beginning of something new. Scary but so much worthwhile.
My intention now is to assist you to take that step from being comfortable and unhappy to exploring being uncomfortable and being hopeful. I have created Ef Zin (previously operating as “Choose to be”) to honour and include every dimension of your ability to be the architect of your life; until there is no more resistance, until wellbeing is achieved.
