About Aaron
Aaron Marjolin is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with six years' experience. He works in the United Kingdom and focuses on stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, self-esteem and motivation. He also helps people facing depression, grief and relationship difficulties.
He approaches sessions in a straightforward way. He listens to what matters to the person in front of him and responds in clear language. He aims to address practical problems such as sleep, eating or day-to-day routines as well as the feelings behind them.
Aaron draws on client-centred work to make sessions about the client's priorities. This means conversations are led by what the client brings and progress is set at a manageable pace. He also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and relationship issues.
He uses emotionally-focused therapy to help with relationship and intimacy concerns and may bring in elements of Jungian and existential thinking when exploring meaning, identity or recurring emotional patterns. These approaches can be useful for trauma, abandonment, codependency and attachment issues.
Sessions are practical and reflective. Aaron can help with anger, addictions, ADHD-related struggles, career questions and coping with change. He works with LGBT concerns, adoption and foster care topics, blended family issues and caregiver stress. He accepts clients from the UK and internationally and runs work in English.
How his approaches are used in online counselling
Aaron works from client-centred and attachment-based perspectives and he uses emotionally-focused work where relationships and intimacy are a concern. Client-centred work means conversations are led by the client and the therapist follows what matters most in each session. Attachment-based ideas look at early relationship patterns and how these affect current interactions and emotional responses. Emotionally-focused work helps people name feelings, understand blocks in close relationships and practice new ways of responding.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then agree how to proceed. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as needs change.
The biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they can fit a conversation into a lunch break, avoid travel time or have a quieter environment that suits focused talking. Online work can also make it easier to continue therapy when life circumstances change, and the therapist will discuss practical arrangements when arranging your first session.
