About Maria
Maria Malone offers practical, compassionate counselling for people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties and life transitions. She writes plainly and listens carefully so clients can name what matters and start making changes. Maria brings 15 years of experience and a person-centred way of working to each conversation.
She draws on a broad mix of therapeutic ideas and tools rather than a single method. That lets her shape sessions around a person's needs, strengths and goals.
Background and approach
In practice this means talking through triggers, trying out new ways of coping, and experimenting with small changes between meetings. Maria focuses on helping people recover from trauma and abuse, manage addiction and stress, and rebuild self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with grief, career pressures, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges.
Sessions aim to make difficult feelings easier to understand and manage. Her manner is collaborative and non-judgemental. She treats clients as experts in their own lives and works alongside them to test new strategies.
Conversations tend to be straightforward, with practical suggestions and space to reflect. Maria is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She practises from the United Kingdom and offers work in English.
To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How Maria works online
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about what feels helpful and adapt methods over time. That collaborative process helps shape goals and the practical steps taken between sessions.
Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and cutting travel time, which can make regular meetings more realistic. If you are outside the United Kingdom or in a different time zone, confirm arrangements before booking since session options are not specified here. Discussing how sessions will look is part of the initial matching and scheduling process so the format can suit daily life and work commitments.
