Mindful Counselling Therapy

A safe space to feel heard, understood and supported.

Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, uncertain or simply too much to carry on your own.

At Mindful Counselling Therapy, we offer a warm, compassionate and confidential space where you can

slow down, talk openly and feel genuinely heard.

Whether you are going through a difficult time, experiencing anxiety or stress, navigating grief or relationships,

facing a life transition, or simply feeling like you need some support, you don’t have to have all the answers before reaching out.

We support adults, teenagers, children, couples and families, offering care that is respectful, understanding and

tailored to each person’s needs.

Our support is available in person, online or by phone, giving you the flexibility to choose what feels most comfortable for you.

You Don’t Have to Face It Alone

Sometimes, the first step is simply having someone who will listen without judgment.

When you’re ready, we’re here to listen, support and walk alongside you, one step at a time.

No referral required — you can contact us directly to take your first step.

Hello! I’m Maria

Welcome to Mindful Counselling Therapy.

I believe that sometimes having someone who truly listens, without judgment, can make all the difference.

I offer a warm, safe and confidential space where you can talk openly, make sense of what you’re going through and feel supported as you find your way forward.

I work with individuals, couples, children, teenagers and families, supporting you through life’s challenges, changes and difficult moments with compassion and understanding.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out. You can simply start where you are.

I’m here to listen, support and walk alongside you.

My Story

My Expertise

Unexpected Mood Swings

Read More
Emotional ups and downs can feel unpredictable and overwhelming. We help you explore the underlying causes, build emotional regulation skills, and cultivate greater self-awareness so you can respond with confidence rather than react in distress.

Stress & Anxiety

Read More
As therapists trained in managing anxiety and chronic stress, we offer practical tools, body-based calming techniques, and in-depth emotional exploration to help you quiet your mind, soothe your nervous system, and regain a sense of control and calm.

Someone to Talk To

Read More
Sometimes, the most healing thing is simply being heard. Drawing on person-centered therapy and active listening techniques, we offer a safe, empathetic environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment.

Family Member Conflict

Read More
With experience in family systems therapy, we support individuals or family units in unpacking long-standing tensions, improving communication, and creating healthier dynamics rooted in empathy, understanding, and mutual respect.

Job Loss or Change

Read More
Major life transitions can deeply affect your self-esteem and sense of purpose. Our therapeutic approach blends emotional processing with solution-focused strategies to help you navigate career shifts, clarify your goals, and rediscover direction.

Depression

Our evidence-based approach to depression — including cognitive-behavioural and compassionate therapeutic models — supports you in moving through hopelessness, emotional numbness, and fatigue with gentle guidance and proven tools for healing.

Irregular Sleep Cycles

Read More
We understand the psychological and emotional links between sleep and mental health. Through counselling that addresses stress, anxiety, and underlying emotional blocks, we help you restore balance to your rest and recovery cycles.

Couples Infidelity

Read More
Infidelity is one of the most painful challenges a couple can face. With training in couples therapy and relational repair, we provide a structured, supportive process to help you process betrayal, rebuild trust, and move forward — together or apart — with intention.

Harmful Thoughts

Read More
As experienced mental health professionals, we offer crisis-sensitive support for intrusive or harmful thoughts. Our approach focuses on safety, emotional regulation, and developing internal resources to help you move through intense inner distress.

Isolation & Loneliness

Read More
Loneliness often stems from deeper disconnection — not just from others, but from yourself. Through relational therapy and attachment-focused work, we help you reconnect in ways that are emotionally fulfilling and sustainable.

Strained Relationships

Read More
We specialize in helping clients identify and shift unhealthy relationship patterns. Using boundary-setting techniques, communication skills training, and emotional insight, we support you in creating stronger, more respectful connections.

Addiction

Read More
Addiction is complex — it often masks emotional pain or trauma. Our expertise in addiction counselling allows us to guide you through recovery with compassion, addressing both behaviour and the emotional roots beneath it for lasting change.

🌿 My Approach & Values

At Mindful Counselling Therapy, I believe therapy is a journey we take together. I offer a safe,

compassionate space where you can feel heard, respected and supported to explore,

heal and grow at your own pace.

Client-centred and collaborative, I work with you, not on you—respecting your voice,

your experiences and what matters most to you.

I draw on mindfulness, CBT and trauma-informed approaches, thoughtfully

tailored to your individual needs.

Everyone is welcome. My focus is on helping you develop clarity, confidence,

resilience and meaningful positive change.
