About Mariya
Mariya Majid is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She works with adults and young people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to leave old patterns behind. Mariya aims to create a welcoming, non-judgemental space where people can talk openly and feel heard.
Her sessions are warm and straightforward. She listens first, then helps clients name what’s happening and decide what they want to change.
Background and approach
She draws on a mix of Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and psychodynamic ideas to suit each person’s needs. In practical terms Mariya helps people reduce day-to-day anxiety, manage stress at work, and cope with the effects of abuse or traumatic events. She also supports people working through relationship strain, attachment worries, and challenges tied to self-image or family of origin.
Clients can expect collaborative sessions where observations and small experiments are used to try new ways of thinking and relating. Mariya explains things plainly and sets achievable steps between sessions when helpful. She holds BACP, which is listed as her professional credential.
Mariya offers sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How therapeutic approaches fit with online work
Mariya uses a mix of approaches that translate well to online sessions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what you say, helping people feel understood and accepted before tackling change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety and shift unhelpful habits. Psychodynamic Therapy attends to past patterns and relationships so you can understand why certain reactions repeat and make different choices.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mariya will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will choose or blend methods that suit your situation. That collaborative process means the plan can change as you make progress or discover new priorities.
Online therapy offers more flexibility for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a short break or be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging provide brief check-ins or ongoing reflection without needing to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caring responsibilities, and daily life.
