About Maja
Maja Struthers is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has six years of practical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety and low mood. Maja offers a calm, steady presence for those facing difficult life moments.
She focuses on grief and loss, coping with life changes, relationship difficulties and issues around self-esteem and confidence. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, compassion fatigue and trauma or abuse.
Background and approach
Her additional areas of focus include abandonment, attachment and codependency concerns, as well as communication and control issues. Maja believes people are experts in their own stories. She aims to help clients notice strengths and use them to move through what feels stuck.
Sessions are framed around practical conversation and small, achievable steps rather than jargon or long lectures. Her work is straightforward and collaborative. She encourages honesty about struggles and about what the client hopes will be different.
That helps shape an approach that fits each person’s situation and goals. If someone wants to start, Maja asks them to reflect on what they most want to change. She offers a supportive space to talk through next steps, set simple goals and build routines that make day-to-day life easier.

How Maja works online
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Maja collaborates with each person to see what fits their needs, goals and preferences. She listens to how problems show up in daily life and suggests techniques that can be tested and adjusted together over time.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online working can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people try different tools between sessions, like simple exercises or short written reflections, so progress continues between meetings.
