Ingrid-Maria Nordgren, BACP

Ingrid-Maria Nordgren helps people who are worn down by stress, anxiety, depression, grief or relationship problems. She supports those struggling with anger, low self-esteem, intimacy and family issues. Ingrid-Maria also offers help for trauma, compassion fatigue, life changes and career-related strain.

She works in a relational, integrative way that pays attention to both feelings and the body. Sessions focus on understanding life experiences and emotions so people can make different choices. She listens for non-verbal cues such as breath and posture as well as words, and uses this to guide gentle enquiry.

People often come wanting to feel more at home in their bodies and clearer about their relationships. Ingrid-Maria describes the therapeutic process as a partnership. She brings warmth, curiosity and at times humour while also challenging unhelpful patterns when needed.

She has practised in private settings for many years and brings 13 years of experience supporting people through difficult transitions. Her background includes work as a Rosen Method Bodywork Practitioner and Teacher, which informs her attention to bodily expression.

Sessions are offered in English and Swedish and are based in the United Kingdom. Therapy aims to help people recognise old habits, process painful experiences and build new ways of relating to themselves and others.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Ingrid-Maria uses relational, integrative methods that focus on emotions and bodily experience. A relational approach means attention to the connection between counsellor and client and how patterns show up in conversation. This helps with issues like attachment, communication problems and intimacy difficulties where the relationship itself becomes useful information.

She also draws on body-aware work informed by Rosen Method Bodywork. That involves noticing breath, posture and non-verbal signals to help people become more aware of their feelings and bodily responses, which can aid processing of trauma, grief and chronic stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and try different ways of working to find what helps most. Clients and the counsellor review progress together and adjust the focus as needed.

Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for visual connection and watching non-verbal cues, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is low, and messaging suits short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make therapy more flexible for fitting sessions around work, travel or family life.
