About Maria
Maria Casson Greco uses psychodynamic and depth-oriented approaches to help people understand themselves and their relationships. She combines reflective work with practical tools to address emotional patterns and everyday struggles. Maria works in English and Portuguese and brings 11 years of experience to her practice.
She draws on Jungian ideas to look at recurring themes and unconscious patterns that affect mood, relationships and sense of self. That work often uncovers long-standing family dynamics and attachment habits that feed anxiety, low self-esteem or feelings of emptiness.
Background and approach
Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions to help people notice thoughts and bodily signals without judgement. This can help with stress, sleep issues, overwhelm and managing strong emotions in the moment. Maria also uses psychodynamic and systemic perspectives to map how past experiences and current relationships interact.
That approach can support people dealing with grief, trauma, addiction, bipolar or depression by helping them see repeating ways of coping and then try different responses. Solution-focused methods are applied when practical change is needed quickly. Short-term goals and concrete steps are set for issues such as communication problems, anger, career decisions and parenting stress.
The aim is steady progress that feels manageable. Sessions are offered via video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Maria explains the process clearly and helps people decide which format and approach fit their needs and life circumstances.

Approaches Maria lists

Online support
Mindfulness therapy is used alongside this depth work to develop moment-to-moment awareness of thoughts, sensations and emotions. Mindfulness practices can reduce stress, improve sleep, ease anxiety and provide practical ways to manage intense feelings between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the journey and Maria treats it as collaborative. She will discuss goals, assess what is helping or holding someone back, and adapt methods to suit their needs and preferences rather than imposing a single model.
Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow a face-to-face rhythm that supports reflective work. Phone sessions can suit people who prefer no camera or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, in-the-moment reflection and flexibility around work or family commitments. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still doing meaningful therapeutic work.
