About Maria
Maria Fallon is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has five years of professional experience. She works with people who face stress, anxiety, family difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and related concerns such as anger and relationship problems.
She practises from a practical, talk-based perspective. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that keep problems going and trying different ways of responding. Maria uses clear, step-by-step ideas alongside deeper discussion about how early experiences shape current behaviour.
Maria has worked in private practice and in roles supporting vulnerable adults who have fled violence. She has also supported young adults with their mental health in education settings. That range means she is used to straightforward, everyday ways of working with stress, motivation and confidence.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic ideas. CBT-style work might include looking at thought patterns and practical strategies to manage feelings. Psychodynamic work looks at early relationships and repeated patterns to understand why certain reactions arise.
People often come for a focused problem such as anger or sleep difficulties, or for broader help with life changes and grief. Maria encourages clients to use their own strengths while trying small, manageable changes. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session to agree what to focus on.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Maria uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic ideas in online sessions. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical strategies to reduce stress or anger. This can include simple exercises, behaviour experiments and short between-session tasks that fit into everyday life.Psychodynamic work explores repeated patterns and earlier relationships that influence current reactions. Online discussion can help surface these patterns and try different responses to longstanding difficulties such as relationship problems or low self-esteem.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Maria will work with the client to decide whether more practical CBT-style work, deeper psychodynamic discussion, or a combination suits their goals and preferences. That decision is reviewed as work progresses.
The practical benefits of online sessions often include easier fitting of therapy around work or family commitments and fewer travel needs. If you want to book, confirm the exact session formats available before scheduling so they work with your routine and technical setup.
