About Maria
Maria Fallon is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. She supports those coping with trauma, addiction, relationship and intimacy issues, and people facing grief or major life changes. Maria also works with concerns linked to LGBT issues, parenting strains, sleep and eating difficulties, and career-related stress.
Maria has five years of experience and practises in the United Kingdom. She splits her time between personal work and roles supporting vulnerable adults and young people in educational settings.
Background and approach
Her background includes supporting people who have fled violence and those navigating immigration-related challenges. In sessions she blends practical thinking strategies with deeper exploration of past experiences. That means looking at current patterns and the earlier events that may shape them.
She encourages small, workable steps so people can try different approaches between sessions. Maria sees the person in front of her as the expert on their life. She focuses on strengths and on building tools that feel useful day to day.
The aim is to make therapy a steady, collaborative process rather than a one-off fix. Her work often addresses attachment and communication problems, post-traumatic stress, postpartum depression and compassion fatigue. Maria supports those dealing with guilt, shame, isolation and self-harm with practical planning and reflective conversation.
To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and international clients are accepted.

How Maria uses talking therapies online
Maria combines Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic ideas to help people work through problems. CBT focuses on practical steps and testing new ways of thinking and behaving, which can help with anxiety, low mood and unhelpful routines. Psychodynamic therapy looks at how past experiences and early relationships shape current patterns and emotional responses, useful for long-standing relationship and attachment issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try ways of working that match what the person needs. This is a collaborative process and may change over time as different challenges arise.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work or caring responsibilities and reducing travel time. It can also make it easier to keep therapy going while living in a different region, since international clients are accepted. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered and scheduled.
