About Maria
Maria Fallon supports people facing stress, anxiety, family difficulties and trauma. She also helps with low self-esteem, motivation, addictions and parenting concerns. Maria works with issues such as grief, relationship and intimacy problems, sleep and eating difficulties, and coping with life changes.
Maria practises from a person-centred perspective that values each person's story. She offers a calm space to talk through painful memories and current struggles. Maria believes people bring strengths they can use to make change, and she works alongside them to build on those resources.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with vulnerable adults who have fled violence, and with young adults in educational settings. She has spent time supporting people through trauma and family conflict in a range of roles. This range of experience helps her recognise common patterns in relationships and behaviour.
Maria uses approaches that look at thoughts, feelings and past experience to make sense of present problems. Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward, with space to reflect on longer-term patterns when helpful. Clients co‑create goals and decide the pace of work.
She holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. Maria has five years of professional experience and combines independent practice work with other supportive roles. She offers sessions remotely to people based in the United Kingdom and beyond.

How Maria’s approaches work online
Maria uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychodynamic ideas to guide online work. CBT focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours; it can help with anxiety, sleep, mood and day-to-day coping. Psychodynamic work looks at how past experiences shape current patterns and relationships and can help when difficulties feel repeated or rooted in earlier life events.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods to suit their needs. This is a collaborative process and clients help decide the pace and focus of the work.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for a fuller conversational experience, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits short check-ins or hands-on journalling between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work from different locations.
