Psychotherapist · Intuitive Life Coach · Hypnotherapist
You know something needs to change.
You’re just not sure where to begin.
Maybe you keep overthinking the same decisions.
Maybe you are tired of being the one who holds everything together.
Or perhaps you understand your patterns in your head, but still find yourself reacting in the same way when something hurts.
I help you understand what is really happening underneath those feelings and reactions—without judging yourself or believing there is something wrong with you.
Together, we look at what has shaped you, what you need now and what you can begin choosing differently.
Because when you understand yourself, you stop fighting yourself.
And that is where healing can begin.

Come as you are. We’ll simply talk and see what feels right for you.
I see who you’re becoming before you do.
This is for you if…
You feel it —
even if you can’t name it yet.
- You can feel that you’ve outgrown your life… but don’t know yet what’s next.
- You’re the one who holds everything together, yet quietly feel exhausted underneath it all.
- You’ve tried therapy before, but something still isn’t shifting at the core.
- You don’t feel fully seen or met in your relationships — at work, at home, or with yourself.
- Somewhere along the way, you’ve lost the thread back to who you actually are.
You may not need another person telling you what is wrong with you. You may need the space and support to understand what you are feeling, what has shaped it and what choices are available to you now.

The HealOneSelf Method
You can’t change what you haven’t
become aware of yet.
Sometimes you know something feels off before you have the words to explain it.
You might notice yourself shutting down, overthinking, people-pleasing or reacting in ways that don’t feel like you. Then the guilt kicks in, and you become even harder on yourself.
But your feelings and patterns are not proof that you are broken.
They are information.
Through psychotherapy, intuitive life coaching and hypnotherapy, I help you slow things down and understand what is really happening underneath the reaction.
We look at what may have shaped it, what it is trying to protect and whether it still belongs in your life now.
Because awareness gives you insight.
Insight gives you choices.
And when you begin making different choices, your behaviour — and your life — can begin to change.
Awareness creates insight. Insight creates choice.
Choice changes behaviour. Behaviour changes your life.
That is the HealOneSelf Method.
Awareness
Notice what is asking for your attention.
Insight
Understand what may have shaped the pattern.
Choice
Recognise how you want to respond now.
Change
Practise new ways until life begins to feel different.
Real clients. Real results.
What happens when you
finally feel seen…
“I found Maria on TikTok by chance. I was having a bad day and reached out to her not realising she was local to me. If that is not fate, then I don’t know what is! Maria is helping me, at 50 years old, deal and address past traumas, perimenopause, parenting, anxiety and more. Her style is comfortable and casual, yet she remains professional. I feel like I am talking to a friend not a counsellor — which is what I love about her. After only a few sessions I am getting more results than my previous psychologists and counsellors. I am already noticing an improvement in my outlook on life and learning to find myself. I highly recommend Maria.”

About Maria
The therapist who helps you
understand yourself.
I’ve spent 30 years sitting with people in their most vulnerable moments — the same spirals, the relationships that keep ending the same way, the life that looks fine on the outside but doesn’t feel right inside.
My intuition helps me notice what may be sitting underneath the words — the feelings, patterns and possibilities that can be difficult to recognise when you are living inside them.
But I am not here to define you or tell you who to become.
My role is to help you understand yourself, trust what you notice and recognise the choices available to you.
Your healing does not belong to me.
It belongs to you.
I should also warn you — I’m quite funny. Burnout, anxiety, people-pleasing — none of it has to be heavy. You’re allowed to laugh while you heal.
READ MY FULL STORY →Psychotherapy
We make sense of the feelings, experiences and relationship patterns that keep affecting your life now — even when part of you thinks you should be “over it” by now.
Intuitive Life Coaching
We look beyond what you think you should do and help you reconnect with what actually feels true for you, what you need and what choices are available now.
Hypnotherapy
We work with the deeper beliefs and emotional responses that can keep running in the background, even when you consciously know better.

You don’t need more advice telling you what you should be doing. You need the space to understand why you keep doing what you do — and the support to choose differently.
The HealOneSelf Process
Your healing, step by step.
Notice the feelings, thoughts, body responses and patterns asking for your attention.
Explore what may have shaped those patterns with curiosity rather than self-judgement.
Recognise where you have choices and decide how you want to respond now.
Practise new ways of thinking, relating and behaving until they begin to change how your life feels.
Come as you are. We’ll simply talk and see what feels right for you.
HealOneSelf Reflection™
Welcome to a different kind
of card reading.
Every reflection begins with a question.
Take a moment to pause, breathe and focus on what you’re seeking insight into.
Then choose the cards you feel most drawn to.
As they unfold, the cards become a mirror—reflecting the thoughts, beliefs and patterns that may be shaping your life.
With every reflection comes an opportunity to look within, see yourself differently, and discover the insight that has been waiting for you.
Sometimes all it takes is seeing yourself differently to understand what you’ve been feeling all along.
Where reflection becomes insight. I see you untangling the thoughts, stories and beliefs that have been shaping your life.

What a reading actually feels like
A personal reflection on what may be
asking for your attention.
Your three cards create a combination that’s almost never repeated. The reading is generated fresh for your specific cards, your chosen theme, and the patterns those cards reveal together.
I’ve spent 30 years learning to read what’s running beneath the surface — what people aren’t saying, what they haven’t let themselves feel yet, what’s already shifting whether they know it or not.
That’s what this reading reflects back to you.
If something lands — if it names what you’ve been circling — that’s usually the sign the work wants to go deeper.
That’s what the free 20-minute call is for →There is a part of you that has been waiting for permission. Permission to want what you want. Permission to stop making yourself smaller so the relationship feels safer. Permission to be fully seen — not the version of you that keeps the peace, but the version that actually exists underneath all of that managing and adjusting.
The Lovers isn’t about finding someone. It’s about the choice to stop hiding from yourself in the presence of another person.
