Maria Fallon helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and relationship strain. She works with concerns such as low self-esteem, depression, addiction and grief. Maria also supports people dealing with parenting challenges, sleep and eating issues, and career or life transitions.

She is listed with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and has five years of professional experience. Maria combines practical talking therapy with attention to how early experiences shape current patterns.

Background and approach

Sessions are straightforward and focused on what matters most to the person in front of her. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to address unhelpful thinking and patterns, and draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at long-standing relationship patterns. Her background includes work in independent practice and roles supporting vulnerable adults who have fled violence.

She has also supported young adults with mental health in educational settings. That mix gives experience with both short-term goals and longer-term personal exploration. In sessions Maria aims to be clear and down to earth.

She helps people set realistic goals and tries small, manageable steps between sessions. The pace is agreed together, so work can be brief and practical or more reflective depending on what the client prefers. People can expect a calm, non-judgemental space to talk and to practise new ways of coping.

Maria respects each person’s story and focuses on building strengths that help them move forward.

How Maria’s approaches work online

Maria uses cognitive behavioural therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours. CBT is practical and often focuses on small experiments between sessions to reduce anxiety, improve sleep or break cycles of negative thinking.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that come from early relationships. That approach can help explain why certain situations keep repeating and can be useful when someone wants deeper, longer-term change.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Maria will talk about goals and what feels most useful, then try methods together and adjust as needed. The work is collaborative, with the client’s experience guiding the pace and focus.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or want flexible, ongoing support between calls. These options increase convenience and help people maintain continuity of care while working towards their goals.
