Empathy-led, person-centred support
Start with Maria WallgrenLicensed · Professional · Cancel Anytime
Maria Wallgren believes a strong therapeutic relationship is founded on empathy, respect and a consistently safe space. She engages with clients in a non-judgmental, supportive and positive manner, using a holistic foundation, a person-centred framework and an eclectic approach to shape a unique, creative, inclusive and practical way forward for each person.
She has worked with people presenting a wide variety of issues and has experience with clients from diverse backgrounds and cultures across the corporate, private, higher education, psychiatric and not-for-profit sectors in Australia and Europe, both as a counsellor and in non-counselling roles. Maria works with adults and has an extensive interest in cultural diversity, transnational counselling and reducing stigma around mental illness. She is fluent in Swedish.
Her path into counselling began with an interest in people and their stories. Maria believes everyone carries narratives that deserve acknowledgement, reflection and learning, and that while each person is the expert in their own life, there are times when sharing a story with another person is helpful. She considers it a privilege to support individuals as they continue to write their own story.
