“I have just finished four sessions with Maria and she has helped me so much. During the third session, I had a light bulb moment when Maria helped me identified a side to my personality which had been holding me back. Since then, I have been able to befriend this side of me which has brought me a lot of comfort and love which I had been missing since my childhood. Internal conflict, conditioned beliefs and a lack of validation have been an issue for me, but now I feel more confident in my choices and decisions, am more understanding of my needs and have found a lot of peace within myself. I have spoken to my doctor about coming off my anti-depressants and have started working with horses again which was a huge passion of mine when I was younger. I have learnt some valuable tools from Maria which I practice regularly to help me to stay in touch with my authentic thoughts and feelings.”

“Connecting with Maria has been instrumental in my journey of self-discovery and growth, which became a lot more complicated and difficult to navigate after deciding to give up alcohol.While other counsellors I’ve tried in the past have been more “by the book”, where I felt like I was being lectured to or given standard advice, Maria has the unique gift of pulling from her own vast knowledge and tools while also making it feel extremely personal. Throughout my entire experience with her, I’ve felt heard, safe, validated and understood. I feel so lucky that I found her and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to start therapy, or anyone who hasn’t been able to find a good fit in the past”

“After removing alcohol from my life, I was disappointed to find that my mental health had not improved as I’d hoped, and in many ways, I was struggling more than ever.
I reached out to Maria after around 18 months of sobriety and I couldn’t be more grateful to her.
Maria helped me work through my trauma and limiting beliefs. She showed me how to listen to and understand my heart, body and nervous system which led to a huge realisation that rather than feeling my emotions, I was pushing them deeper and deeper down until the pressure was too great and the valve would blow.
Maria taught me invaluable skills for avoiding a crisis in the future but also gave me the tools to deal with it, should it occur.
For the first time in a very long time (maybe ever), I feel safe in my own body, I trust myself and I’m able to care for myself with the love and compassion I deserve. There is peace and freedom in my soul”

“Counselling with Maria has had a profound impact on my life. With great empathy and non judgement, she has created a space where I have been able to recognise repeated patterns in my life that have held me back from being truthful with myself and others. She has taught me to realise and ask for what I need as well as understanding my own obstacles and learning how to overcome them. She is a ‘one off’ human being and therapist”
