Maria Julian

My name is Maria. I am very passionate about counselling and Psychotherapy.  I have been on a long journey myself having therapy to help, learn about myself and teach myself how to grow. I am a humanistic, integrated therapist. I am person centred. And believe that we all know what we need with the space to explore this. I like to help clients find their power. I became a counsellor because I don’t want anyone suffering in silence or to be/feel alone. I believe that talking is medicine. I believe in the healing power of the therapeutic relationship. I will meet my clients needs for empathy, understanding, support, guidance, unburdening and healing.

Our Life situations/issues/trauma’s can make us feel lost and alone, not being able to lead the life we want. It can weigh so heavy and make everyday simple task hard to do. This can lead to anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, No motivation, loss of confidence and low self - esteem. Every day life can be a struggle. I feel Having someone you can trust in a safe and comfortable environment can really help, to talk through our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. Having the space to experience the here and now. Learning the power of now.  Looking into, or exploring the past, can help us move forward and clear the fog and chatter that builds in our heads.
I would very much like to offer you empathy, unconditional positive regard in a safe, confidential space. I have knowledge of different theories, which will allow you to talk or explore anything you would like.
life experiences are hard to deal with sometimes, I believe that this blocks our growth. I would like very much to help unblock some of these with you, and to help towards making you feel empowered again. Or perhaps for the first time.
counselling is a very personal and individual process. The way in which we would work together will be centred around you. I like to be guided by my client.

I have been doing my own therapy with horses and have learnt so much around animals helping in the therapy healing process. Learning about myself and how I work emotionally, mentally and physically is one of the greatest journeys I started.

I offer 1 hour sessions, I’m a member of BACP. DBS checked. And have experience working adults young people and children.

I work Monday to Saturday With a few evening appointments available.. I am flexible and understand how tricky it is to get a time that’s fits with everybody’s situation and needs.

I work from a lovely quite and private room on the North Devon and Cornwall boarder.

£45per session.
