Maria Mina offers a calm, supportive approach to counselling that aims to help people move past the obstacles preventing a meaningful and authentic life. She works to create a non-judgmental space where clients can talk openly, reflect on what is holding them back and bring about the changes they want in order to move forward.
She is a qualified and experienced integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor, which means she combines different therapeutic approaches and tailors therapy to meet each person’s individual needs. With four years of practice, Maria supports people with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression and low mood, relationship and family difficulties, issues with self-esteem and confidence, grief and loss, anger and irritability, parenting and intimacy-related matters, and career or work-related challenges.
In addition to her private practice, Maria is an approved therapist with Anxiety UK and volunteers with the mental health charity Mind. Before training as a therapist she worked for many years in the public and not-for-profit sectors as a human resources director, focusing on building inclusive, caring and fair workplace cultures. For further professional information, her National Counselling Society profile is available at https://nationalcounsellingsociety.org/counsellors/ncs18-06021.
Many people ask whether online therapy really helps. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One key benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the mode of contact that fits their life, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to schedule and maintain regular sessions amidst busy or changing routines.
Therapists offering online work are licensed professionals, and if someone finds they would prefer a different therapeutic fit they are generally able to change therapist. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible and practical route to getting support for everyday mental health concerns.
