About Marios
Marios Andreou is a counsellor with 24 years of experience working with adults in the United Kingdom. He holds BACP accreditation and focuses on helping people who are struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, relationship difficulties, and questions about identity.

He works in a calm, respectful manner and listens closely to what matters to each person.
Background and approach
Sessions use gentle questions and active listening to help people name their concerns and set realistic goals. He supports people through big life changes and times of uncertainty by helping them connect with their own strengths. Marios draws on client-centred therapy to keep the person’s experience at the heart of the work.
He also uses existential ideas to help people explore meaning, values, and how they want to live. Together these approaches aim to make sense of difficult feelings and to develop practical coping strategies. He has particular experience with issues commonly faced by LGBT people and is mindful about diversity in every session.
He also offers support around family matters, intimacy, trauma and abuse, chronic illness, career concerns, and feelings of emptiness or shame. If someone is unsure where to start, he helps them clarify what they want from therapy and how to take the next steps. Sessions are paced to the individual, with attention to building self-understanding, improving relationships, and managing day-to-day stressors.

How his approaches translate to online counselling
Marios works from client-centred and existential approaches that transfer well to remote work. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening closely, reflecting back what you say, and letting you lead the pace and topics. It helps with anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship worries by building a trusting conversation.Existential therapy looks at meaning, choices and how people want to live. It is useful for people facing major life changes, questions about identity, or feelings of emptiness. In practice this means exploring values, weighing options, and finding ways to act that feel more aligned with what matters to you.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, then adapt methods to suit the person. This is a collaborative process that can change as issues become clearer.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter or more frequent check-ins when needed. It can also be helpful when quieter surroundings or less screen time are preferred, depending on the chosen format.
