About Maria

Maria Casson Greco is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 11 years of practice. She works in English and Portuguese and supports people dealing with relationship and family concerns, grief, stress and anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and anger among other issues.

She uses psychodynamic ideas alongside Jungian thought to help people understand patterns that repeat in their lives. That means looking at feelings, past experiences, and hidden beliefs that influence current behaviour. She also draws on mindfulness to help with present-moment awareness and on solution-focused and systemic approaches to identify practical steps forward.

Sessions tend to involve talking through difficult emotions and noticing recurring themes in relationships. She pays attention to how past attachments and family dynamics can shape present responses. Practical coping strategies are used alongside reflective work to help clients manage everyday stresses and emotional reactions.

Maria works with a broad range of concerns including self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, career difficulties, bipolar and depression, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas listed include abandonment, attachment issues, communication problems, codependency, control issues, and guilt and shame.

Her style balances reflective exploration with concrete tools. That can mean bringing mindfulness exercises into sessions, setting short-term goals, or mapping relationship patterns. People who want to understand why anger or resentment keeps returning may find this blend of depth work and practical steps useful.

How sessions work

How Jungian, psychodynamic and mindfulness work online

Maria integrates psychodynamic work with Jungian perspectives to look at patterns that repeat across relationships and life stages. This approach helps people identify unconscious influences and how past attachments shape present responses.

She also uses mindfulness techniques to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactive responding. Mindfulness practices can help with stress, anger, sleep issues and emotional regulation by offering simple exercises to use between sessions.

Solution-focused and systemic ideas are used to set short-term goals and map relationship patterns, so conversations can move from insight to practical steps. Maria treats the choice of method as collaborative and will discuss what feels most useful based on the client's needs and preferences.

If you plan to work online, confirm the exact session formats when booking. Many people find online work easier to fit around daily life, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break or regular sessions without travel. Online sessions can also make it simpler to keep continuity of care when circumstances change, while still allowing the reflective and practical work described above.
