About Marie
Marie Jones is a BACP counsellor with ten years of professional practice. She draws on more than two decades working in mental health to guide people through difficult times. Marie aims to listen closely and help clients feel understood while they make sense of painful experiences.
Her work focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief and addictions. She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related issues, issues around self-esteem, sleep and eating, and the strain of caregiving and chronic illness.
How Marie works
More specific areas she supports include trauma and abuse, bipolar difficulties, and challenges linked to attachment and abandonment. In sessions she blends a human-centred approach with practical tools. That means time to talk and be heard, alongside strategies to manage thoughts, behaviours and daily stresses.
She uses techniques from cognitive behavioural approaches and mindfulness to help with unhelpful thinking and low mood. Marie can also bring existential ideas into conversations about meaning, loss and life direction. For relationship concerns she draws on Imago relationship work to help people reflect on patterns and improve communication.
Her aim is to tailor the mix to each person’s needs. People can expect a calm, straightforward style that balances emotional support with clear coping strategies. Marie works with adults in the United Kingdom and offers a space to work through problems affecting work, health or relationships.
She encourages practical steps alongside deeper reflection to promote lasting change.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and empathy. The counsellor offers an accepting space where people can talk through feelings and make sense of their experiences, which can help with depression, low self-worth and grief.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses simple exercises and practical tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and build more effective habits for anxiety and stress.
Mindfulness therapy teaches attention skills that reduce reactivity to stress. Short practices and breath work help people notice thoughts and sensations without being overwhelmed, which supports sleep, coping with pain and emotional regulation.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose and adapt methods based on goals, preferences and how someone responds in sessions. This means techniques can change over time as needs shift.
Online formats offer flexible ways to access therapy. Video calls let people work face to face when a conversation benefits from visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing reflection between calls. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, caregiving or mobility constraints while using the approaches above.
