About Maria
Maria Fallon helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She supports those coping with relationship and family difficulties, issues with self-esteem, and concerns around grief, addiction and intimacy. She also works with parenting strains, sleep and eating problems, and life changes such as pregnancy and postpartum challenges.
Maria is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English. Maria draws on two main ways of working to help people understand patterns that cause pain.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going and focuses on practical steps to change them. Psychodynamic therapy focuses on early experiences and how they shape current relationships and feelings.
Her background includes five years of professional experience in the field and roles supporting vulnerable adults who have fled violence, alongside work with young adults in educational settings. She also runs a part-time independent practice. This mix of settings means she is used to practical, everyday struggles as well as deeper, longer-standing difficulties.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. Maria aims to help clients spot stuck cycles, try small changes, and build on their strengths. She encourages questions and keeps explanations clear so people know what to expect from therapy.
If someone is unsure how to begin, Maria asks them a few practical questions to set goals and plan the next steps. The work can be focused short term, coaching-style, or more open-ended depending on what the person wants to do.

How Maria works online
Psychodynamic work looks at how early relationships and past experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. It helps people make sense of recurring patterns in relationships, attachment issues and deeper emotional reactions that may follow trauma or loss.
Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and adapt methods over time. Many people find a mix of practical CBT steps and reflective psychodynamic work helpful, and the plan can change as therapy progresses.
Please confirm the session formats available before booking, as options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work, study and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can tailor sessions to match your everyday routine and the issues you want to address.
