Her career has included adult work in a doctors' surgery, a low-cost charity organisation, private practice, and support within schools for pupils, parents and staff. Based in London, she works with multicultural communities and, drawing on her European heritage, pays close attention to how cultural background shapes each person's experience and needs.

Her practice is integrative and grounded in a relational, person-centred foundation.

Known for a compassionate and respectful manner, Marita offers a therapeutic space to reflect, explore reactions and develop greater self-awareness and emotional regulation.

Approach-focused online therapy with flexible session options

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises a collaborative, non-directive relationship where the therapist provides empathy and support to help clients explore feelings and build self-understanding. This approach is helpful for issues like low self-esteem, life transitions and relational concerns.

Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the effects of traumatic experiences by gently processing memories, teaching regulation skills and reducing the ongoing impact of past events. It is suited to people coping with trauma, abuse or complex stress responses.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and strengths to create forward momentum. By identifying realistic goals and small changes, this approach supports people seeking concrete strategies for stress, anxiety, career or relationship challenges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Marita will collaborate with each person to assess needs, preferences and goals, adapting methods over time to find the best fit for progress and wellbeing.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access regular support, maintain continuity of care and fit therapy into busy lives while working with registered professionals and experienced therapists.
