About Maja
Maja Struthers uses practical, evidence-based approaches to help people manage difficult feelings. She is a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy member and has six years of professional experience. Maja focuses on everyday challenges like stress, anxiety and low mood.
She aims to make therapy a clear, manageable step for people feeling overwhelmed. Maja works with people dealing with grief and loss, major life changes and struggles with confidence. She helps with relationship and family concerns, and with issues around intimacy and parenting.
How Maja works
Her practice also covers anger, career uncertainty and compassion fatigue. Her style is straightforward and supportive. She treats people as experts in their own lives and looks for practical strengths to build on.
Sessions are about small, achievable changes rather than quick fixes. Maja pays attention to how earlier relationships shape present difficulties, including attachment and family of origin issues. She also helps people facing commitment, codependency or control problems, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Conversations can include making sense of guilt, shame and forgiveness. Therapy can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability.

Online support options
Evidence-based approaches for online support
Many of the techniques Maja draws on are focused on practical change and understanding everyday patterns. One common approach helps people notice how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going and then practises small changes to break those patterns; this is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach looks at how early relationships influence current feelings and reactions and helps people develop new ways of relating and coping with attachment and family of origin issues.Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Maja will talk with each person about what feels most useful, try different ways of working when needed, and adapt the approach to fit the person's goals and preferences rather than applying a fixed method.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit changing schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be shorter and easier on bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can work for people who prefer written check-ins or need more flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while maintaining regular contact with a therapist.
