About Maria
Maria Casson Greco is a BACP-registered counsellor with 11 years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She works in English and Portuguese and helps people address relationship strain, grief, anxiety, low self-esteem and issues around addiction and trauma. Maria also lists codependency and attachment-related concerns among her focus areas.
Maria uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat in relationships. She helps people notice old habits and where they come from. Sessions often explore family of origin, abandonment feelings, and how early experiences shape present choices.
She also draws on Jungian therapy to bring attention to inner images and meaning. This approach can help when someone feels empty or disconnected from their sense of self. Mindfulness methods are used to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce overwhelm.
Solution-focused work is offered when someone wants practical steps and short-term goals. Systemic thinking helps when relationship dynamics and family patterns are part of the problem. Maria explains options and works with each person to decide what to try next.
Her practice covers a wide range of day-to-day difficulties, from sleep and eating struggles to career and parenting stress. People who find themselves putting others first or living around another person’s moods may find this approach relevant. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Maria commonly uses psychodynamic therapy to help people notice and understand repeating relationship patterns. This looks at past and present interactions to uncover why certain responses keep happening. Jungian therapy is used to work with symbols, dreams and personal meaning, which can help people who feel disconnected or empty. Mindfulness practice supports grounding in the present moment and can reduce reactivity to stressors.Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss what feels most relevant to the person, try different ways of working, and adjust based on progress and preference. Clients and therapist plan goals together and review how sessions are helping over time.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy life and making it easier to attend from different locations. If you need specific session formats, confirm the current options before booking. Many people find shorter check-ins or flexible scheduling helpful when balancing work, family and other commitments.
