About Mariya

Mariya Majid is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage 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 unsure how to move forward. Mariya aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where clients can speak honestly and feel listened to.

Mariya blends approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on client-centred work to build trust and focus on what matters to the individual.

Background and approach

Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of coping. Psychodynamic ideas help uncover patterns that repeat across relationships and life choices. Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

Mariya has three years of experience working in the UK and holds BACP registration. She speaks English and works with issues including attachment and abandonment, caregiver stress, blended family concerns, chronic illness and body image. Her style is calm and direct.

She encourages practical steps as well as slower reflection. People who come to her can expect clear conversation about goals and small, manageable actions between sessions. Mariya supports people exploring relationship struggles, communication problems, commitment worries and separation.

She can help with eating and food-related issues, control difficulties, emptiness and family-of-origin themes. Her aim is to help clients make sense of things and find forward momentum.

How Mariya's approaches translate to online therapy

Mariya uses client-centred work to create a trusting atmosphere where the person's concerns lead the conversation. This approach helps when someone needs to feel heard and understood before making changes.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviours. CBT can be useful for managing anxiety, stress and self-esteem by giving practical tools to practise between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Mariya treats this as a collaborative task. She will discuss goals and preferences, try methods that suit the person's needs, and adjust the plan as things progress.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video is helpful for a fuller conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, chat can suit quick check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
