Hi my name is Maria Malster and I am a qualified and registered integrative counsellor working with adults and adolescents. I am registered with the British Association of Counsellors and psychotherapists - BACP and I abide by their ethical framework. I am passionate about supporting other people through difficult times In their lives and I have over 4 years experience working with survivors of sexual assault. I am a warm, caring and empathic person who can offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where together we can explore the difficulties worrying you.
Sometimes in life we can feel stuck and life can throw challenges that may feel overwhelming, we may wake every day feeling anxious, or sad or feeling as if you are facing an insurmountable challenge to be motivated, focused and energetic enough to get through the day, struggle to be around others, or perhaps feel constantly angry and disconnected.
Counselling can provide a safe space in which past traumatic experiences and difficult feelings can be thought about, in a confidential, impartial and non-judgemental setting and it allows the exploration of the life experiences that have brought us to where we are today.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
