About Marina

Marina Wright is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family problems, low self-esteem, and life changes. She also offers coaching-style support for motivation and personal goals.

Marina approaches sessions with the belief that each person knows their story. She helps clients notice strengths they already have and use those strengths to tackle problems that feel stuck. Conversations are direct and practical, focusing on what the person wants to change and small steps they can try between meetings.

She draws on a mix of methods to match different needs. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to identify clear goals and next steps. Internal Family Systems helps people notice the different parts of themselves that push or protect them. Existential Therapy is used to look at meaning and choices when life feels uncertain.

Sessions aim to improve everyday coping and decision making. Marina works on communication patterns, boundary-setting, and rebuilding confidence after separation, loss, or immigration-related stress. She also supports people coping with abandonment, attachment concerns, codependency and feelings of emptiness.

Marina runs conversations in English and Russian. International clients can work with her, and practical arrangements are made through the platform's booking flow. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Approaches you can expect and how online sessions work

Marina uses a few clear methods that suit different problems. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying small, concrete steps toward the change you want. It helps when you want quick, practical moves and clearer next steps. Internal Family Systems looks at the different parts of a person - the protector parts and the parts that carry pain - and helps those parts communicate better. That approach can help with inner conflict, shame, and patterns like codependency. Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, choice and responsibility when life feels uncertain or empty, and it is useful for people facing big life decisions or midlife change.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will explore your goals and preferences, and together you will choose methods that fit the issues you bring. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription, and the plan can change as you make progress.

The therapist's biography does not list which online formats she uses, so please confirm available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and travel. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed and options that avoid travel time. Registered or accredited professionals offering online sessions can tailor pacing, homework tasks and next-step planning to fit everyday life.
