About Maria

Maria Delasaux is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience listed for this profile. She works with stress, anxiety, family issues, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and career concerns. She also notes additional focus areas such as attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress and communication problems.

Maria describes her approach as client-centred and collaborative. She treats people as experts on their own lives and helps them name problems and try practical ways to address them. Sessions involve talking through what is happening now and testing small steps that might feel manageable.

Her methods draw on a mix of approaches including cognitive behavioural ideas, psychodynamic thinking, solution-focused techniques and somatic work. That means conversations can cover current thoughts and behaviours, past patterns that still affect day-to-day life, short-term practical goals, and bodily reactions to stress.

Maria highlights work with trauma and says she has experience alongside neurodiversity. In practice this can include supporting people to understand dissociation, responses to domestic violence or difficulties after disasters, and how early attachment patterns affect adult relationships.

She accepts international clients and offers sessions via the platform's booking flow. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session under a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person's own goals. Online sessions using this approach tend to centre on the client's priorities and on practical conversation about what matters now.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at current thoughts and behaviours and tests small changes. In online sessions CBT can involve setting short tasks between meetings and talking through what worked or what felt hard.

Psychodynamic ideas help identify repeated relationship or emotional patterns that come from earlier experiences. Working this way online can mean using dialogue to notice themes that recur in everyday life and link them to present difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, then try methods together and adjust as needed in collaboration with the client.

The original biography does not list specific session formats for this profile, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people appreciate online sessions because they can fit into study or work schedules, avoid travel, or allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques like CBT exercises and somatic grounding for remote sessions to suit everyday routines.
