About Maria
Maria Mina is a counsellor with four years' experience who aims to make starting therapy less daunting. She focuses on listening, helping people identify what is holding them back, and supporting practical change. Maria holds NCPS, which she uses to guide her professional practice in the United Kingdom.
Her way of working is straightforward and warm. Sessions are supportive, non-judgemental and honest. She gives space to talk through stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and parenting concerns, low self-esteem, anger, career pressures and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Maria blends different therapeutic techniques to match each person's needs. That means she adapts her approach rather than using one fixed method. People who value clear feedback and gentle challenge often find this helpful.
She has experience beyond the therapy room, including past roles in the public and not-for-profit sectors where she worked in human resources and focused on inclusive workplace culture. Maria has also worked with Anxiety UK and volunteered with the mental health charity Mind.
Sessions can help people manage life changes such as redundancy, retirement or chronic illness, and tackle everyday struggles like feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Maria also offers life coaching and practical strategies for work-life balance and confidence building. Practical next steps involve completing a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions that fit around other commitments.
The aim is to help people move forward with clearer goals and manageable steps.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client discuss goals, try methods that suit the person's needs, and adjust the plan together. That way sessions stay focused on what matters to the individual and evolve as progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this way of working. Video calls let people use facial cues and tone during conversations, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter audio check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging can support shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions or more flexible scheduling. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other responsibilities while maintaining continuity of care.
