About Maria
Maria Casson Greco is a counsellor and psychodynamic practitioner with 11 years of clinical experience. She speaks English and Portuguese and offers therapy for people who are carrying grief, anxiety, low self-esteem or the fallout of past trauma. Maria aims to help people gain clearer self-understanding and stronger relationships through reflective therapy and practical steps.
Her approach draws on psychodynamic ideas alongside Jungian perspectives. Sessions look at patterns that repeat in relationships and at the emotional themes that shape day-to-day choices.
Background and approach
The work often links past experience to present difficulties so people can make different choices now. She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people stay present and reduce overwhelming stress. Solution-focused elements are introduced where short-term goals or concrete coping strategies are helpful.
Systemic thinking is used to see how family history and social roles influence feelings and behaviour. Maria commonly supports people dealing with relationship problems, parenting strain, addiction issues, eating and sleeping difficulties, mood conditions such as depression and bipolar, and life transitions. She also addresses attachment wounds, abandonment fears, codependency, anger, guilt and shame.
Sessions are offered in several online formats to fit different needs. People are invited to begin with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that suit their rhythm and availability.

Ways of working Maria names
Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
Therapeutic approaches and online practice
Maria combines psychodynamic work with Jungian ideas to help people recognise repeating patterns and the emotional themes that shape their choices. Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experience influences current feelings and relationships, while Jungian perspectives bring attention to symbols, dreams and deeper personal meaning.She also uses mindfulness to build calm and improve focus in stressful moments. Mindfulness work teaches straightforward ways to notice thoughts and bodily sensations so anxiety and overwhelm become easier to manage. Together these approaches allow exploration of deeper issues while also offering tools for day-to-day coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maria will collaborate with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their goals, needs and preferences. The plan can change as therapy progresses and as different issues arise.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions suit shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth, live chat allows a conversational flow without audio, and messaging supports regular written reflections between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and busy schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress.
