Maria Delasaux
Client-centred counsellor using practical therapies
About Maria
Maria Delasaux practices a client-centred style of counselling and uses a mix of evidence-informed approaches. She is a BACP member based in the United Kingdom and works with people facing stress, anxiety, family problems, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and career concerns. Maria believes people know their own story and brings a respectful, listening approach to each session.
She encourages clients to build on their existing strengths and to take small, practical steps toward change.
Background and approach
The emphasis is on clear, manageable goals rather than jargon or tests. Her methods draw on client-centred principles alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and psychodynamic thinking. Maria also uses solution-focused techniques and somatic approaches when these suit a person’s needs.
This mix lets her adapt to different concerns and preferences rather than following a single method. Maria has three years of documented experience in the therapy field and holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP. She has previously supported people coping with attachment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, codependency and communication problems.
She also has experience with issues arising from disaster, dissociation, separation and domestic violence, as well as pressures faced by first responders and veterans. Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients as well as people in the UK.

Sessions & fees
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to make sense of their feelings and decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety and stress.Maria also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time and where they might come from. These approaches are used to understand problems and to develop tools for coping, whether the issue is low self-esteem, trauma, or ongoing stress. Choosing the right mix is collaborative - the therapist will work with each person to identify which approach fits their goals and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful for visual connection, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins or a gentler way to begin. Many people find the range of formats helps fit therapy around work, caregiving or other commitments.
