About Maria
Maria Levenfiche is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and trauma-related concerns. She supports those coping with relationship and family problems, grief, addictions and issues around intimacy, eating and self-esteem. Maria works with people dealing with career stress, ADHD and a range of concerns linked to attachment and abandonment.
She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. People can expect a calm, respectful space to talk about what matters to them.
Background and approach
Maria listens for strengths and helps clients notice small, usable steps they can try between sessions. Maria draws on eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That background informs a gentle, evidence-aware approach to common and complex problems.
In sessions she pays attention to how past relationships shape present feelings and behaviours. That includes work on family of origin issues, blended family challenges and communication patterns that keep people stuck. She also supports people facing separation, domestic violence histories, fertility struggles and fatherhood questions.
Therapy can include short-term focused work or a longer conversation depending on what a person needs. Maria offers a range of online formats so people can choose what fits their life, and she accepts clients from outside the UK.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online therapy
Maria uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try new, healthier behaviour patterns over time. This method is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress, and it gives simple strategies to practice between sessions.Another approach centres on how early relationships shape feelings and reactions now. This work looks at attachment and abandonment themes and helps people understand patterns in relationships and make different choices. It often suits people dealing with family conflict, intimacy troubles or the aftermath of abuse.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Maria discusses options with each person and together they decide what fits best with goals, needs and preferences. She adapts methods as therapy progresses so the plan stays helpful and realistic.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical benefits. Video calls let people read facial cues and keep a closer connection. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit busy schedules or moments when someone prefers written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on real, usable change.
