About Mariya
Mariya Majid is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of practice. She works with adults and young people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. Mariya aims to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or who notice repeating patterns that get in the way of daily life.
She uses a mix of Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Psychodynamic Therapy. Sessions focus on talking through current problems and looking at the thoughts and patterns that keep those problems going. Practical steps from CBT may be used alongside exploration of past experiences to understand how they affect present feelings.
Mariya pays attention to issues such as attachment and abandonment, communication and commitment difficulties, and the impact of family of origin. She also works with concerns linked to autism and Asperger syndrome, avoidant personality patterns, body image and eating related issues, and the stresses faced by caregivers.
People bringing long-term health challenges, chronic pain or disability can expect help that considers those practical realities alongside emotional work. Mariya also supports those dealing with separation, blended family concerns and the effects of control issues or emptiness.
Sessions are conducted in English and Mariya does not currently work with international clients. Practical details such as how sessions are booked and subscription terms are handled through the service’s sign-up process.
How her approaches work for online counselling
Mariya uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting, helping people to talk about what matters most and be heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change them, which can help with anxiety and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help the client decide which methods fit best, based on their goals and how they prefer to work. This is a collaborative process and can change over time as needs shift.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting counselling into a busy life and reducing time spent travelling. Confirm the specific session options before booking because the biography does not list formats. Many people find online work easier to schedule around school, work or medical appointments, and some sessions can be shorter or done without video to suit quieter surroundings.
