About Maria

Maria Delasaux is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with stress and anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and career issues. Maria also lists codependency among areas she helps people to understand and manage.

She works in a straightforward way that centres the client's experience. Sessions focus on listening, making sense of patterns, and trying small changes that fit everyday life. Maria draws on client-centred methods to follow what matters most to the person in the room.

Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and to practise different ways of coping. Those practical steps can help with anxiety, motivation and the routines that keep people stuck. Somatic ideas are brought in when stress shows up in the body, with simple grounding or breathing exercises to try between sessions.

Maria also uses psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas to look at long-standing patterns and to set achievable short-term goals. That mix aims to balance understanding why things repeat with trying new choices now. She pays attention to family roles, attachment issues and the specific strains of caring for others.

Sessions are conducted in English and Maria accepts international clients. The setup uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the client. It helps when someone wants to talk through confusing feelings, decisions or the strain of putting others first. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and actions and uses short practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; this can be helpful for anxiety, stress and low confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. That means looking at short-term steps alongside understanding longer‑standing patterns so the plan can shift if something is not helpful.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel for an appointment. Registered or accredited professionals often combine reflective conversation with practical exercises that can be practised between meetings to build new ways of responding in daily life.
