Hi, I'm Maya, a Danish-born, British psychotherapist and supervisor working exclusively online.
I became a therapist to empower more people to rise above trauma and challenging life experiences.

Words are powerful. 💬
If your default thought is “I can’t,” you might be holding yourself back without even realising it.
✅ Shift your mindset from limitation to growth. Progress isn’t instant—it comes through persistence, practice, and patience.
Here’s how you can start today:
1️⃣ Swap “I can’t” for “I’m learning.” Give yourself permission to be a beginner.
2️⃣ Celebrate small steps. Every effort counts, no matter how tiny.
🌱 Remember: Growth is a process, not a destination.
💭 Question for you: Where can you give yourself permission to practice more today?

Discipline isn’t about being perfect—it’s about showing up consistently ✨
You don’t have to get it right every time.
Progress isn’t about perfection, it’s about the small, consistent steps you take to move forward.
⚡️ Every day you show up, you’re building trust with yourself.
⚡️ Each small effort compounds into lasting change.
It’s okay to have setbacks—what matters is that you keep going.
What’s one area of your life where you want to show more consistency?

Think of your mind like a cluttered closet ✨
Trauma and distressing memories can pile up, making it hard to sort through your emotions.
EMDR therapy works like reorganizing that closet—taking out painful memories, processing them, and putting them back in a way that no longer feels overwhelming.
🔹 Distressing memories don’t disappear—they just lose their power over you.
🔹 Your brain naturally processes and heals, just like during REM sleep.
🔹 Over time, what once felt unbearable becomes just another part of your story—not something that controls you.
EMDR is backed by NICE and WHO as an effective treatment for PTSD and trauma.
Ready to untangle the past and create space for healing?
Have you ever noticed how old memories can still affect your present?

When life feels overwhelming, pause and ask yourself…
What does my inner-child need? – Comfort, reassurance, play?
What do I need right now? – Rest, space, support?
What does my future-self need? – Boundaries, courage, self-compassion?
Reconnecting with yourself starts with listening. Your needs are valid—past, present, and future.
Which of these questions speaks to you the most today?

Anxiety, low mood, and self-esteem issues can hold you back from fully being yourself, there might be times when you feel a bit disconnected from life, yourself and those around you. Self-doubt, dread or negative thoughts about yourself and your abilities may prevent you from moving forward in your personal life or career.
Perhaps you are troubled by your past experiences or current situation, have a difficult relationship with yourself or others. You might feel quite alone, out of place or misunderstood, find yourself withdrawing or putting on a brave face.
Counselling helps you to gain insight and understanding regarding your difficulties. Talking therapy enables you to gently unravel, process, and work-through complex emotions in order to resolve them. If you are open to understanding yourself better and want to experience life more fully, counselling is for you.
With the help of a professional counsellor, you will be given the support needed to overcome your difficulties. Counselling can empower you to be more at ease within yourself, take charge of your life and relationships. A more content way of being is possible and within your reach.

You save precious travelling-time. Additionally, you could save on travel and parking costs.
You get the full benefits of therapy from the convenience of your home.
Many people feel freer to speak openly in online sessions compared with in-person therapy.
Limited mobility and physical accessibility are no longer potential blocks for working with the right therapist for you and your needs.
