About Maria

Maria Fallon is a counsellor who supports people struggling with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and family-related problems. She also helps with low self-esteem, motivation, relationship concerns, grief, addiction and coping with life changes. Maria works with people facing a wide mix of issues and welcomes conversations about practical goals and emotional recovery.

Maria holds BACP accreditation, and has five years of experience as a therapist. She works part time in private practice and has worked in roles supporting vulnerable adults fleeing violence and young adults in educational settings. That range of work has brought experience with immigration-related stress, postpartum difficulties, and recovery after sexual assault and domestic violence.

Her approach mixes direct, goal-oriented tools and longer-term reflection. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking and try different behaviours. She also uses Psychodynamic Therapy to look at how earlier experiences shape current responses.

Sessions tend to focus on practical steps that fit everyday life as well as on understanding the roots of recurring problems. Maria aims to help people build on existing strengths and break unhelpful cycles. She encourages clear goals, and reviews progress together throughout the work.

Maria describes the first steps as a short matching questionnaire followed by arranging sessions that fit each persons needs. People from outside the UK may be able to work with her; check the session options when you book to confirm what is offered.

How Maria uses CBT and psychodynamic work online

Maria often combines practical, skills-based work with deeper reflection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is about spotting unhelpful thinking and testing small changes in behaviour to reduce distress. It can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep and everyday coping difficulties. Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns and the links between early experiences and present-day reactions, which can help when problems repeat over time.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. Maria will work together with each person to identify goals and try methods that feel useful. Initial sessions are used to test what helps, and plans are adjusted as needs and preferences become clearer.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm which session types are offered before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into busy days, reduce travel time and let people check in from different locations. It also allows shorter check-ins when schedules demand a brief session, or camera-free options when listening rather than visual work is preferred. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods to suit each person's practical circumstances and goals.
