About Marie
Marie Milnes is a BACP counsellor and psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom. She has worked in counselling and psychotherapy for over a decade and brings 12 years of experience to her practice. Marie offers a calm, non-judgemental approach so people can speak honestly about what is worrying them.
She aims to help people make sense of painful feelings and regain steadiness in daily life. Marie works in a person-centred way that focuses on the person's own experience.
Background and approach
Sessions are paced to suit each individual and are designed to create understanding rather than pressure. This approach often helps when people feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, grief, relationship problems or low self-esteem. She has supported people dealing with trauma, abuse, bereavement, anger and self-harm, as well as difficulties with sleep, eating and substance use.
Marie also works with issues such as parenting strain, career worries, intimacy-related problems and mood conditions including bipolar and depression. Over the years she has practised with adults, young people and children and has worked directly with matters like domestic and sexual abuse, bullying, and suicidal thoughts. That breadth of experience means she can adapt sessions to meet different needs and preferences.
Marie describes the therapeutic process as collaborative. She listens carefully and helps people notice patterns in feelings and behaviour. The aim is to build resilience and clearer ways of coping, so people feel better able to face life changes and difficult moments.

Approaches Marie lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Working together starts with finding which way of working fits best. Marie will talk through goals and preferences and adjust the style as the relationship develops. That collaborative decision-making helps ensure sessions feel relevant and manageable for the person attending.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video works well for a face-to-face style conversation. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing to speaking or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to arrange sessions around work, family commitments or travel, and to continue support when in different locations.
