Maria Casson Greco
Depth-oriented psychodynamic counsellor
About Maria
Maria Casson Greco draws on psychodynamic and Jungian ideas to help people understand how their past shapes their present. She speaks English and Portuguese and brings 11 years of clinical experience to her work. Maria aims to make complex feelings easier to name and to help clients find steadier footing during hard times.
She uses psychodynamic thinking to look at recurring patterns in relationships and behaviour. That can include issues such as grief, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma and bipolar mood changes.
Background and approach
Sessions often explore family of origin themes, attachment and communication problems that keep repeating in adult life. Maria also brings Jungian therapy into sessions, using symbols, dreams and life narratives to uncover deeper meaning. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to help with stress, sleep difficulties and emotional regulation.
Solution-focused ideas help create short-term goals when practical steps are needed. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Sessions balance talking about feelings with practical strategies for coping and decision-making.
People can choose video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging depending on what fits their life. Maria is registered with BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and works from the United Kingdom. She does not take international clients.
To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Maria combines psychodynamic therapy with Jungian ideas and mindfulness to offer a layered way of working. Psychodynamic therapy looks for repeating patterns in relationships and behaviour and helps people understand where those patterns began. Jungian therapy uses dreams, symbols and life stories to uncover deeper meaning and help make sense of inner conflict. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple present-moment practices that reduce stress, improve sleep and support emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your concerns, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to emphasise. This collaborative process helps shape sessions so they feel useful and relevant to your life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are close to in-person conversation and suit deeper work, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day, live chat offers shorter check-ins and text messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions. These options give flexibility for different schedules and communication styles while keeping the focus on practical progress.
