About Me

Hi. I'm Maria, and I am a Humanistic Psychotherapist. I trained at The Metanoia Institute in Ealing, West London, and have an MSc in Humanistic Counselling and Psychotherapy from Middlesex University. Humanistic training incorporates different therapeutic approaches that recognise the balance and integration of the mind and body. I draw upon the approaches most suited to meeting your needs during our sessions.

My extensive professional experience includes working with clients at their most vulnerable times with the Macmillan Cancer Charity, the NHS, and the Emergency Services. My experience has taught me that a relationship that offers support, emotional safety, and the opportunity to express yourself without fear of judgment helps you process thoughts and feelings and better understand yourself and your relationships. You may be frustrated, noticing repeating patterns of behaviour that hold you back from reaching a place of meaning and understanding of yourself and your experiences. Our sessions will help you make sense of your difficulties, possibly with a different perspective, to move you towards finding your answers and give you the resilience to cope better.

I currently work with private clients online and by telephone. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, I trained in a BACP-approved Online and Telephone Counseling qualification.
