Mariya Majid, BACP

Mariya Majid helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She writes for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. Mariya aims to make the first step feel manageable and straight forward.

She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk openly. Sessions focus on making sense of what is happening now and spotting patterns that keep clients stuck. Practical ideas are offered alongside time to reflect and feel heard.

Mariya blends several approaches to suit each person. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the person’s experience and foster trust. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours. Psychodynamic Therapy helps uncover past patterns that affect current relationships and feelings.

Her way of working is collaborative. Mariya checks in about what’s helpful and adjusts the approach as therapy progresses. She keeps explanations plain and uses everyday language so clients can use what they learn outside sessions.

Mariya is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, abbreviated as BACP. She has three years of experience working with adults and young people in the United Kingdom. Sessions are run online by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different needs.

How Mariya’s approaches work online

Mariya uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a respectful, listening space where the person’s experience leads the work. This approach helps people feel understood and builds trust, which can ease anxiety and open up difficult topics.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behaviour. Online sessions suit CBT well because exercises and steps can be shared and reviewed between meetings, helping with stress, anxiety, and low mood.

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns from earlier relationships that still affect feelings and choices today. Talking about these patterns can bring clarity about why certain reactions keep happening and help people make different choices.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Mariya will talk with the person about their goals and preferences and try different approaches together. The plan can be adjusted as sessions continue to match what is most useful.

Online therapy is flexible and can fit into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction is wanted. Phone sessions take less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins or people who prefer writing to talking. These options make ongoing therapy more accessible for many people.
