About Maria
Maria Casson Greco draws on psychodynamic and Jungian ideas to help people understand themselves and their relationships. She combines reflective conversation with practical steps to address everyday struggles. Maria speaks English and Portuguese and brings 11 years of clinical experience to her work.
She uses psychodynamic therapy to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and daily life. That helps people see how past experiences influence current feelings and choices.
How Maria works
Jungian elements invite attention to dreams, symbols and deeper personal meaning when clients want that angle. Mindfulness is woven into sessions to help slow down intense emotions. That makes it easier to notice thoughts without being overwhelmed by them.
Solution-focused techniques are available to set clear, manageable goals and track small changes between sessions. Systemic thinking supports anyone dealing with family dynamics or role-related stress. It helps identify interaction patterns and practical steps to change them.
Maria adapts her approach to each person’s needs, mixing methods to fit the issue at hand. People come for many concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family problems, addictions, trauma, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger and career stress. She also works with issues such as attachment wounds, codependency, body image, parenting strain, and forgiveness.
Sessions are offered from the United Kingdom and delivered in formats such as video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Costs vary with location and are managed through a cancellable subscription system.

Online support options
Using psychodynamic and mindfulness approaches online
Maria blends psychodynamic therapy with Jungian thinking to help people notice repeating life patterns and the deeper meanings behind emotions. Psychodynamic work looks at how past experiences shape current feelings and choices, which can be helpful for relationship issues, grief and long-standing mood concerns.Mindfulness therapy is used to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Simple mindfulness practices help manage anxiety, support better sleep, and make it easier to pause before responding in stressful moments. Solution-focused ideas are brought in when short-term goals and practical steps are wanted.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Maria will discuss your needs and goals and together you will decide which methods to try. That collaborative process means approaches can be mixed and adjusted over time.
Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and communication styles. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone can be a good fit if bandwidth is limited, and text-based or chat sessions can work for brief check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible for people balancing work, family or other commitments.
