Integrative approaches and online therapy that adapt to you



Maria Lawrence practises integrative counselling, bringing together ideas and techniques from different therapeutic disciplines to create a personalised plan. This approach means sessions can address immediate concerns like stress or sleep difficulties while also exploring deeper patterns related to relationships, grief, trauma or self-esteem. It is designed to fit the person rather than forcing the person to fit a single method.

She also uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each client. These techniques focus on learning practical skills, developing new ways of thinking and building coping strategies that clients can use between sessions. They are suitable for a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, addiction-related concerns and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria works collaboratively with clients to identify their goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, adjusting the work as needed to achieve meaningful progress. Online therapy offers practical flexibility - clients can meet by video call, speak by phone, or use live chat and text-based messaging depending on what suits them. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and stay connected with a registered professional even when schedules or circumstances change.
