We'll be introducing our Logic Lounge team to you over our social media with a fun questionnaire, starting with one of our newest additions to the team, Marya Setrak, a Provisional Psychologist at our Parramatta clinic.
1. What made you get into the field that you are currently in?
Well, I grew up in a rural country town called Parkes in New South Wales, so a lot of mental health was kind of limited out there, so I guess my passion came from there… wanting to make it more accessible.
2. What are your hobbies?
I go to the gym four nights a week. I am into weightlifting, a bit of a gym freak, and also hanging out with family and friends. I have my little cousins which I happen to call my nieces and nephews, although they’re not my nieces and nephews, but I play around with them, and I enjoy that.
3. What’s the best advice you were ever given and by whom?
Well, an old friend once said to me, “If you can do something in five minutes, do it immediately.”
4. What energizes you outside of work?
Exercise and coffee!
5. What’s your favourite holiday?
Probably anywhere relaxing, with light, clear waters. Is it stereotypical to say Maldives?
6. What motivates you at work?
Just seeing my clients grow, becoming independent and progressing throughout treatment.
7. How would your friends describe you?
Well, I actually asked my friends this morning as I was going to describe myself as helpful, and this is what they wrote: Very intelligent, honest and ambitious.
8. Do you have a favourite sports team?
Um, I don’t have a favourite sports team, but I do enjoy watching the Australian Open and Nadal is my favourite player. I also watch the World Cup and the Asia cup, but I don’t have a favourite team.
9. What three items would you take with you to a deserted island?
Oh, no! I hate this question! Um, probably my phone, my twin sister… I’d probably take her… and weights.
10. If you could choose a superpower, what would it be and why?
Ah, that one is easy. I’ll say teleportation. Just to kind of cut down on travel time, because you can’t buy time with money.
