About Maija
Maija Vosloboinikova is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Maija also supports people dealing with work-related pressure, life transitions and identity questions.
Maija uses an integrative approach that draws on client-centred methods and cognitive behavioural techniques. Sessions focus on what a person wants to change, with practical steps and reflective conversation. She pays attention to patterns that come from early attachment and how they show up in current relationships.
Her work includes addressing grief, addiction and trauma and abuse. She also offers support around sexual wellbeing and intimacy, including questions of desire, identity and performance. Maija is affirming of LGBT clients and helps people who are navigating blended family or separation issues.
Practical concerns such as sleep, eating, anger and concentration are also part of her caseload. She brings motivational interviewing and mindfulness into sessions when they suit a client's goals. Maija treats parenting- and fatherhood-related stresses, career shifts and issues connected to immigration or ageing.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. Her style centres on clear, direct conversation and use of evidence-informed tools to help clients test changes between meetings. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment.
How her approaches translate to online work
Maija uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in sessions. Client-centred work focuses on listening, reflecting and following what matters to the person. It helps when someone needs space to clarify values, identity or relationship goals. CBT looks at thoughts, behaviours and practical experiments between sessions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and habit change.Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the process. Maija will discuss goals and preferences with each person and agree on methods together. That collaborative discussion helps pick when to use reflective listening, behavioural experiments or mindfulness practice.
The therapist’s online session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make sessions easier to fit around study, early careers and busy schedules. It can also allow shorter check-ins, options without a camera, or appointments at times that suit shift work or studying. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques so practical steps and reflective work continue effectively across distance.
