About Mariya

Mariya Majid works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She also supports concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, communication problems, and family of origin difficulties. Mariya aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through what feels hard right now.

She draws on three main approaches: Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Therapy. Sessions focus on understanding patterns, naming painful feelings, and testing practical steps that can shift daily life. Mariya adapts her style to each person - sometimes listening and reflecting, sometimes using practical exercises or looking at past influences.

Mariya has three years of experience working with adults and young people in the United Kingdom. Her registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, is listed as a professional credential. She offers an inclusive approach and attends to factors such as race and identity when these are part of someone’s story.

People often come for help when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to break old patterns. In sessions she aims to help people find clearer thinking, steadier mood, and better ways to manage daily pressures. Therapy with Mariya is collaborative and paced to what each person needs.

How Mariya’s approaches work in online therapy

Mariya uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) as core ways of working. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being listened to and understood, helping people to express feelings and find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Mariya will talk with each person about their goals and try different ways of working to see what fits best. This is a collaborative process where technique and pace are matched to what the person wants to change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed and make it simpler to attend from different locations. The site’s booking process shows how to start, but please confirm the exact session formats available before you book so you know what will suit your routine.
