Maria Delasaux offers a practical, person-focused way of working. She uses gentle guidance and listening to help people make changes that matter. Maria is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom and speaks English.

Maria draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She often uses client-centred ideas to make space for a person’s story and strengths. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns.

Background and approach

Her background includes three years of formal counselling practice and a longer history supporting people with stress, anxiety and trauma. Maria also works with concerns such as self-esteem, career questions and family difficulties. She supports people affected by attachment problems, autism and blended family issues among other challenges.

In sessions Maria aims to be straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what small steps might help. She will listen for patterns that keep problems going and help people try different ways of responding.

People can expect a calm, respectful space to talk through difficult events and daily worries. The process is collaborative - goals and pace are agreed together. Maria encourages realistic plans that fit into everyday life.

Approach-driven therapy delivered online

Maria commonly uses client-centred therapy to create a respectful, listening space where the person’s priorities guide the work. This approach helps when someone wants to be heard and to build on their own strengths.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and try practical changes. CBT can be useful for anxiety, stress and confidence problems because it focuses on clear steps and experiments people can practise between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the journey. Maria will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit best with a person’s goals and situation, and may combine approaches as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth, chat can be useful for short check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats give flexibility for people juggling work, family or travel while accessing support from registered or accredited professionals.
