About Marie
Marie Jones is a counsellor with ten years' experience and a background of more than 25 years in mental health. She holds BACP registration, and she brings both professional and life experience to each session. Marie aims to help people feel heard and understood while they address the issues that matter to them.
She works in a humanistic, integrative way and focuses on exploring what is happening for each person. Sessions often involve talking through difficult memories, naming patterns that get in the way, and trying practical strategies to manage day-to-day stress. Marie pays attention to how past experiences shape current feelings and relationships.
Clients come for a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, sleep or eating problems, and self-esteem. She also supports people facing life changes, compassion fatigue, chronic illness and coping after disasters. The emphasis is on steady, realistic progress rather than quick fixes.
Marie uses approaches like client-centred work, cognitive behavioural tools and mindfulness to help people notice thoughts and try different responses. She also draws on existential ideas about meaning and Imago-based thinking about relationships when these fit a person’s goals.
If someone is unsure where to start, Marie encourages a first conversation to clarify aims and agree small steps. She explains things plainly, avoids jargon, and helps people develop coping skills they can use between sessions.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-centred work focuses on the person’s experience in the here and now. It means the counsellor listens without judging, reflects what they hear and helps the person find their own solutions; this approach can help with low self-esteem, grief and relationship worries.Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. It uses simple experiments and practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful patterns.
Mindfulness teaches ways to notice thoughts and physical sensations without immediately reacting. It can be useful for stress, rumination and managing cravings or sleeplessness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques and adapt methods to suit the person’s needs and preferences in a collaborative way.
Confirm the available session options before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. Some approaches, like CBT, lend themselves to exercises and worksheets that transfer well to remote sessions, while mindfulness practices can be guided just as effectively in conversation.
