Magdelena "Maggie" Rasheva-Malul, BACP

Magdelena "Maggie" Rasheva-Malul is a UK-based therapist with a degree in Integrative Counselling and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the United Kingdom. She brings five years of clinical experience to work with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, intimacy challenges, low self-esteem, family issues, grief, sleep problems, parenting concerns, anger, career transitions, depression, ADHD, and a wide range of related struggles.

Maggie also volunteers as a counsellor for two charities, reflecting her belief that therapy should be accessible to those who cannot afford private care. She approaches her work with curiosity and respect for each person she meets, drawing on interests in neuroscience, philosophy, and behavioural science to inform a thoughtful, human-centred practice. An avid traveller and lifelong learner, she values cultural perspectives and enjoys reading as part of ongoing professional and personal development.

Maggie sees therapy as a courageous step toward greater self-understanding. She frames the work as collaborative - helping clients notice blind spots and turn them into strengths. While she does not promise miracles, she aims to plant seeds for meaningful change and to support clients as they take practical steps toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Magdelena "Maggie" Rasheva-Malul works with several evidence-informed approaches tailored to the needs of each person she sees. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of relating and how early connections influence current relationships - it is often helpful for intimacy issues, attachment concerns, and relationship repair. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating an empathic, nonjudgemental space where the client leads the pace of change; this approach supports self-exploration, self-esteem, and personal growth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and offers practical tools to manage anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maggie works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adapts the work as the relationship develops. This means treatment can shift from insight-focused exploration to skills-based strategies when appropriate.

Online therapy with Maggie is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. Working remotely makes it easier to access registered professionals from the United Kingdom and beyond, supporting continuity of care even when life is busy or circumstances change.
