About (Maria)
(Maria) Asuncion Fernandez Hemoso is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with depression, anxiety and stress. She works with those facing addictions, trauma, low self-esteem and motivation problems. She invites people to bring their story and strengths into sessions to find practical ways forward.
She believes the client is the expert on their life and that therapy is a collaborative process. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps that fit everyday life.
Background and approach
The aim is to increase coping skills and build on what already works for each person. Her approach draws on several well-known methods, including cognitive behavioural ideas and acceptance-based practices. She also uses attachment-based and client-centred ways of working to help people understand patterns in relationships and feel heard.
Dialectical behaviour tools may be used to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance. With 14 years of experience, she has supported people through grief, relationship difficulties, career concerns and complex life changes. She also works with issues such as body image, parenting strain, caregiver stress and workplace compassion fatigue.
Her work includes helping people facing neurodivergent-related challenges such as ADHD and mood conditions including bipolar and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. She accepts international clients and uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss these methods with each person and together decide which fits best. That decision is reviewed as therapy progresses, so sessions stay tailored to changing needs and goals.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls suit deeper conversations and visual connection, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or to fit into a busy day. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact and to continue therapy around work, caregiving or travel commitments.
