Maria Fallon
Compassionate, practical support for life challenges
About Maria
Maria Fallon helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem and motivation. She supports people facing relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, sleep and eating problems, parenting strain, career stress, and the emotional effects of major life changes. Maria also works with clients experiencing ADHD, compassion fatigue, and LGBT-related concerns.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic ideas to shape practical conversations.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on understanding patterns that link past experiences to current feelings and behaviours. That makes it easier to spot habits that keep problems going and try different ways of responding. Maria has five years of professional experience and holds BACP registration, which is noted as her credential.
She has worked in independent practice and in roles supporting vulnerable adults, including people who have fled violence, as well as young adults in education settings. That range of work informs a practical, down-to-earth approach. In sessions she aims to combine structured problem solving with space to reflect on deeper patterns.
People can expect clear tools to try between meetings alongside conversations about how their history affects current struggles. Maria encourages clients to use their own strengths in making changes. She offers appointments using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, and accepts international clients.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

How Maria's approaches work in online therapy
Maria uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours. CBT sessions often include practical exercises and steps to try between meetings, which can reduce anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful routines.She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people understand how early experiences can shape current patterns. This work looks at repeated ways of relating and feelings that may come from past relationships, which can be useful for long-standing issues like attachment problems, grief or identity concerns.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Maria will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means conversations about what to focus on, agreed short-term goals, and adjustments as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distance. Phone sessions can be quicker to set up and use less data. Live chat or messaging can suit people who prefer writing or need brief check-ins during the week. These options help people access regular support while balancing work, study or family commitments.
