About Nerissa

Nerissa Mauricio offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to turn. She greets difficult feelings with attention and curiosity and helps clients think about what might need to change. Nerissa frames the work as a joint journey rather than a one-way prescription.

She is introduced as a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP. Nerissa draws on developmental, analytic and humanistic ideas to make sense of what is happening in the here and now.

Background and approach

She pays attention to family history, childhood experiences and the relationships that shaped current patterns. The work may include talking about memories, dreams and stories to access unconscious material. Creative ways of working are part of her practice when they suit a client.

This can include visual images, metaphors, drawing, movement and breath work to notice what is held in the body alongside what is said. People come to Nerissa for many reasons, including stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addiction and managing life changes.

She also supports people facing long-term health issues, caregiver strain, body image and identity questions. Her training included a Diploma in Integrative Transpersonal Counselling from Re-Vision in North London and three years practising at a low-cost counselling service. Nerissa now works in independent practice and has seven years' clinical experience.

She sees clients in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients.

Online support

Nerissa commonly works from attachment and emotionally-focused ideas alongside a client-centred stance. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand and change how they relate to others. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions to shift how someone responds in key relationships. A client-centred way of working means the therapist follows the client's pace and priorities and offers empathic listening to help people make sense of their experience. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Nerissa treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss which combination of methods might best suit a person’s goals, needs and preferences. Together they can try different ways of working and adjust as the therapy progresses. Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and making scheduling more flexible. It can also make shorter check-ins easier to arrange around work or caring commitments. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking to ensure they match your needs.
