About Maria

Maria Fallon is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and family-related concerns. She also supports those dealing with low self-esteem, motivation difficulties and confidence issues. Maria works with a wide range of emotional problems including depression, grief, addictions and relationship or intimacy-related issues.

She practises part time in independent practice and has five years of professional experience. Her background includes roles supporting vulnerable adults who have fled violence and working with young adults in educational settings.

Background and approach

These different roles have given her experience with people from varied backgrounds and life situations. Maria uses a combination of practical, present-focused work and exploration of personal history. She connects current difficulties to earlier experiences when that helps make sense of repeating patterns.

The aim is to identify unhelpful cycles and try different ways of relating to oneself and others. In sessions she encourages people to notice their strengths and build on them. Conversations are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

Maria describes people as the experts in their own stories and seeks to support them as they try out change. She can help with issues such as post-traumatic stress, parenting stress, burnout and compassion fatigue, as well as eating, sleeping and concentration problems. Maria also supports people dealing with immigration-related challenges, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness.

How CBT and Psychodynamic Work Online

Maria uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. CBT sessions often focus on practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, improve sleep or address low mood.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at how past experiences shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they repeat certain behaviours and can open up new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maria will discuss options with each person and together they will choose methods that match goals and preferences. The process is collaborative and can change over time as needs evolve.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and situations. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can suit shorter check-ins or times when people prefer not to be on camera. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and travel.
