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.

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.

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?

Therapy helps make sense of the chaos ✨
When your thoughts feel tangled, overwhelming, or impossible to sort through, therapy offers a space to slow down, unravel, and understand.
💡 It’s not about erasing struggles—it’s about finding clarity.
💬 It’s not just talking—it’s healing, growing, and transforming.
🤝 You don’t have to do it alone.
A messy mind doesn’t mean a lost cause. Healing is possible. One step at a time.
What’s one thing that helps you feel clearer when your thoughts feel overwhelming?

Growth and setbacks can exist together.
You don’t have to choose between being strong and feeling vulnerable. Healing doesn’t erase your past—it helps you move past it.
🌱 Growth & mistakes can coexist.
💪 Power & vulnerability can coexist.
🌟 Success & trauma can coexist.
😰 Anxiety & confidence can coexist.
You are not defined by just one part of your past or current situation. You can continue to grow.
Which of these have you experienced at the same time?

Therapy is not purely for trauma—it’s for anyone who wants to understand themselves better.
There’s still stigma around getting help, but here’s the truth:
✔ Therapy helps you process emotions, not just ‘fix’ problems.
✔ It gives you tools to manage anxiety, stress, and relationships.
✔ You don’t need to wait until things feel unbearable to start.
Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. Seeking help is strength, not weakness.
What’s one misconception about therapy that you used to believe?

Forgiveness frees you, not them.
"As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn't leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I'd still be in prison.”
- Nelson Mandela.

Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not there.
Trauma isn’t always obvious.
PTSD can look like overworking, avoiding certain places, struggling with sleep, or feeling on edge for no clear reason. It doesn’t have to be dramatic to be real.
Healing starts with acknowledging what’s beneath the surface.
You don’t have to do it alone.

Have you ever noticed how trauma shows up in unexpected ways?
Hey, remember that one time you went to the gym, did a few setups, and walked out with a six pack?? No...!?
Well, therapy kind of works in the same way.
One counselling session probably won't be life changing. But if you show up for yourself consistently, and put in the work. Gradually over time the gains can be transformative.

Feeling stuck in your emotions? Try these quick shifts! ✨
🌀 Overthinking? – Write it out. Getting thoughts onto paper can bring clarity.
😴 Tired? – Take a break or nap. Your brain may need a rest to function at its best.
🌿 Stressed? – Go for a walk. Fresh air and movement help reset your nervous system.
🎵 Angry? – Listen to music. The right song can soothe and help release tension.
📖 Burnt out? – Read. A good book can transport your mind to a different place.
🏋️ Sad? – Exercise. Movement releases endorphins, your natural mood boosters.

✨ Why Choose Online Therapy Over Traditional In-Person Counselling? ✨
Through years of experience, I’ve seen firsthand how clients feel more at ease in the comfort of their own homes rather than in a clinic. This relaxed environment helps them open up more easily, allowing us to get to the root of their concerns faster. The result? Deeper, more effective therapy in less time.

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.

Due to the social distancing guidelines outlined by the UK government, all counselling sessions are offered exclusively online via Zoom; a free and confidential video-call platform.
