Maria Delasaux, BACP

Maria Delasaux is a BACP-registered therapist based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self-esteem and motivation. As a member of the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she follows professional standards for therapeutic practice and offers a respectful, person-focused approach.

Maria draws on approaches that help clients explore their thoughts, feelings, and relationships while building practical coping strategies for everyday life. She works collaboratively, treating each person as the expert of their own story and helping them identify and use their strengths to move through challenges. Her work is informed by a belief that small changes in perspective and behaviour can lead to more fulfilling, sustainable outcomes.

Taking the first step toward change often takes courage, and Maria aims to provide steady, nonjudgmental support throughout that process. Whether the immediate need is to reduce anxiety, repair family communication, address trauma, or boost confidence, she focuses on partnership with the client to set realistic goals and notice progress along the way.

Approaches and online therapy that meet you where you are

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an empathic, nonjudgmental relationship in which the client leads the pace and content of sessions. This approach supports people who need space to explore feelings, build self-awareness, and strengthen confidence in their own decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and try practical strategies to change behaviours and emotional responses. It is often used for anxiety, stress, low mood, and difficulties with motivation or confidence.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying achievable goals and practical steps toward them, which can be especially useful for clients seeking clear, short-term progress on specific issues. The therapist works in partnership with the client to test small changes and notice what works.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria will collaborate with each client to determine which methods or combination of methods best match their goals, needs, and preferences, revising the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit support into a busy life or to work with registered professionals from different locations. Many clients appreciate the accessibility and consistency that remote options provide while they pursue meaningful change.
