About Maja
Maja Struthers is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has six years of professional experience. She works with adults on common difficulties such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression and problems with self‑esteem. She also helps people who are struggling with relationship and family issues, parenting pressures, career strain and anger.
Maja believes clients know their own story and brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to sessions. She helps people identify patterns that cause repeated problems, and she supports them as they try new ways of responding. Conversations focus on clear, manageable steps rather than jargon or long-winded theory.
Her work includes helping people cope with life changes and loss. She offers space to talk through grief, to untangle family of origin issues and to address feelings of emptiness or isolation. She also helps people who struggle with control issues, commitment worries and communication problems.
Maja commonly works with concerns linked to trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue and attachment difficulties. She brings six years of practical experience to these issues and uses that background to guide conversational work and task-focused tools that people can apply between sessions.
People who want to start with Maja are encouraged to follow the service sign-up steps to match and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and costs vary by location.
How sessions work
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Many therapists who follow evidence-based techniques describe cognitive-based work as a way to spot unhelpful thoughts and test them against real-life evidence. This approach is practical for anxiety, anger and low mood because it leads to clear actions to try between sessions. Attachment-focused ideas look at patterns in relationships and how early experiences affect current reactions. That kind of work helps with intimacy-related issues, commitment worries and family of origin problems by mapping out repeated patterns and experimenting with different responses. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods based on the person's concerns, goals and personal preferences rather than imposing one fixed route. That means plans can change as work progresses and new priorities emerge. For practicalities, confirm the session formats offered before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats also let people choose whether to use video or audio, which can help on days when being on camera feels too much. Registered and accredited professionals aim to keep sessions focused and usable so that tools discussed can be applied in everyday life.Areas of focus
