Maria Delasaux, BACP

Maria Delasaux is a BACP-registered therapist based in the United Kingdom with three years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, family challenges, trauma and abuse, and career concerns. BACP refers to the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. She works with clients who are seeking to build self-esteem, regain motivation, and improve confidence while navigating complex family dynamics.

Maria adopts a collaborative stance that recognizes each person as the expert on their own life. She draws on a range of therapeutic approaches to tailor support to individual needs, helping clients identify strengths and practical steps forward. Her practice includes attention to attachment issues, neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger Syndrome, blended family matters, caregiver stress, codependency, communication problems, and challenges related to separation or loss.

Maria understands that starting therapy requires courage and offers a steady, respectful presence to guide people through difficult transitions. She aims to create a supportive environment where clients can explore patterns, process past hurts, and work toward clearer goals for wellbeing and relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Maria combines client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to support people working through stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and questions about life direction. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client’s experience - it helps when someone needs a safe, accepting space to explore feelings and build self-understanding. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, examines how thoughts and behaviors influence emotions and provides practical tools to manage anxiety, change unhelpful patterns, and set achievable goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts her style as therapy progresses so clients feel involved in planning their pathway forward.

Online therapy with Maria is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life or to connect across distance. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, allow continuity of care when circumstances change, and let clients choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for them.
