About Marine

Marine Vernet, BACP, NCPS, is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and depression. She also supports people facing abandonment, attachment struggles, codependency, issues around kink and alternative sex culture, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.

Her sessions are conversational and practical. Marine combines ideas from psychoanalysis, existential therapy and cognitive behavioural approaches, and adapts these to each person. Sessions look at what happened in the past and how it shows up now, with a focus on what can change going forward.

Marine often helps people who are questioning identity, sexuality or desire, and those coping with infidelity, separation or long-standing relationship patterns. She listens without judgement and works with clients on intimacy, trust and commitment issues. She also supports people living with HIV or navigating shame and secrecy related to sexual expression.

Therapy can include discussing specific behaviours, testing new ways of communicating, and reflecting on personal meaning and responsibility. Marine offers sessions in English and in French. Practical matters such as scheduling and fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Marine aims to help clients find clearer direction, stronger boundaries and more steady emotional footing.

Approaches for online work and what they do

Marine draws on psychoanalytic ideas, existential thinking and cognitive behavioural strategies. Psychoanalytic ideas look at recurring patterns rooted in past relationships and how these repeat now; this can help with attachment and abandonment issues. Existential approaches focus on meaning, responsibility and choice, which can be useful when someone feels lost after major life changes. Cognitive behavioural techniques target present thoughts and behaviours, offering practical steps to ease anxiety and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is something she does together with the client. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. That collaborative process means methods can be mixed and adjusted as work progresses.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, shifts or commuting. They also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are limited, or sessions without being on camera if that helps you focus. Registered or accredited professionals use these options to help therapy fit daily life rather than the other way around.
