About Maria
Maria Mina is a counsellor with four years' experience who aims to make starting therapy straightforward and manageable. She works to put people at ease so they can talk about what is blocking them. Maria focuses on helping people move towards a more meaningful and authentic life by supporting small, practical changes.
She offers a calm, non-judgemental space to reflect and figure out what matters. Sessions are honest and supportive so clients can work out realistic next steps.
Background and approach
The aim is to identify unhelpful patterns and try different ways to cope with them. Maria practises an integrative psychotherapeutic approach, which means she draws on more than one method to suit each person. That flexibility helps when worries are mixed, for example anxiety and low mood alongside work stress or relationship difficulties.
She also combines short-term coaching-style work with deeper therapeutic conversations when that fits the person's goals. Before training as a counsellor she worked in human resources, focusing on inclusive and supportive workplaces. She now also volunteers with mental health charities and is listed with the National Counselling Society as NCPS.
Her background informs a practical, people-focused style. Maria often helps with low mood and depression, anxiety, stress, relationship and work-related problems, grief, confidence, parenting pressures and coping with life changes. Sessions aim to make day-to-day life feel more manageable and to build skills people can use after therapy ends.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Maria discusses your goals and preferences and then suggests methods that fit those aims. The process is collaborative, so adjustments are made as therapy proceeds to ensure the approach remains helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls suit longer conversations and visual connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat provides a quicker check-in, and messaging supports shorter, ongoing reflections between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments, and make it easier to access support from different locations.
