About Maria
Maria Casson Greco is a BACP counsellor who uses psychodynamic ideas alongside Jungian and mindfulness approaches. She offers conversational, reflective work to help people understand patterns in their relationships, emotions and behaviour. Maria speaks English and Portuguese and brings 11 years of clinical experience to her practice.
Her sessions focus on what matters day to day. She helps people talk through anxiety, stress, grief and depression. Relationship concerns, family problems and issues like codependency or communication difficulties are common topics.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing eating or sleeping struggles, addiction, anger, career stress and the effects of trauma. Maria uses psychodynamic therapy to look at repeated patterns that come from earlier relationships and life events. Jungian ideas help explore personal meaning and recurring themes in dreams or feelings.
Mindfulness practices are used to build calm and present-moment awareness during hard moments. Work with her is conversational and reflective. People can expect enquiry into feelings, life history and current triggers, alongside practical ways to manage distress.
Sessions aim to increase self-understanding and clearer choices rather than quick fixes. She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Fees vary with location and therapist availability and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Maria draws on psychodynamic therapy to help people discover repeated patterns from earlier relationships and life events that affect current feelings and choices. This approach is useful for concerns such as relationship problems, grief, and long-standing mood issues. Jungian therapy is used to explore personal themes, symbols and deeper meaning in feelings or dreams, which can help when life feels empty or deflated.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maria will discuss options with each person and adapt the mix of psychodynamic exploration, Jungian reflection and practical mindfulness depending on the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process focused on what helps the client feel clearer and more able to cope.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is often chosen for fuller conversation and non-verbal cues, while phone calls can suit people with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, written reflection or fitting therapy into busy days. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life or other commitments.
