About Marie
Counsellor Marie Jones is a BACP member with ten years’ experience in therapeutic practice in the United Kingdom. She works from a humanistic integrative standpoint and lists common areas she helps people with such as trauma, depression, anxiety and low self-worth. She also addresses grief, addictions and a broad range of life stresses.
Marie draws on more than 25 years of earlier work in mental health alongside her ten years as a qualified therapist. That mix of professional and life experience shapes how she approaches sessions. She mentions particular experience with complex trauma stemming from childhood abuse and with common problems like sleeping difficulties, anger and relationship strain.
Her working style focuses on listening and helping people to explore and process what they bring to counselling. She aims to help people develop practical coping strategies and clearer ways to manage everyday problems. Conversations are grounded and practical rather than clinical jargon.
Marie lists several approaches she uses, including Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Existential Therapy, along with Imago Relationship Therapy and Mindfulness. She blends these methods to match what someone needs in session rather than following a single model.
People come to her with a wide range of concerns beyond the most common issues, such as attachment and abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and dissociation. She also helps with career questions, intimacy-related worries and compassion fatigue.
If you are thinking about counselling she asks that you consider whether talking through these matters could improve your day-to-day life, relationships or work. To begin, follow the site prompts to see online counselling options and complete the short matching questionnaire.
How her therapeutic approaches work for remote counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s concerns at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without imposing solutions and helps people to clarify what matters most to them. This approach is useful for issues like low self-worth, grief and relationship questions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical steps to change patterns of thinking and behaviour. It often includes simple exercises and planning between sessions and can help with anxiety, depression and sleeping problems.
Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and values. It helps when life changes, loss or questions about direction feel overwhelming. Sessions aim to name the problems and consider manageable ways forward rather than offering quick fixes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss different methods and together you will decide what to try based on your goals and preferences. That decision can change over time as needs shift.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the session types available before booking. Many people find remote counselling easier to fit around work or family, or useful when they prefer shorter check-ins or not being on camera. Discuss practicalities and session length during the initial matching step so planning fits everyday life.
