Mariana PsyrdellisHCPC

Mariana Psyrdellis is a psychologist with 12 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She holds HCPC registration and speaks English and Spanish. Mariana focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and depression, and she supports people facing major life changes such as separation or relocation.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioural ideas, integrative practice, and neuropsychology, blended to fit each person. Sessions are adapted to the way someone thinks, learns and responds so conversations lead to clear, manageable steps. She aims to make therapy practical and understandable rather than full of jargon.

Mariana has worked as a researcher, college professor and scientist, and she brings that evidence-minded perspective into sessions. That background shows in her preference for strategies that can be measured and reviewed over time. She uses what fits a person rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

In practice she listens for how family, social life, identity and biology interact for each person. From there she helps people notice patterns, strengthen coping skills and rebuild confidence. She tailors the pace and goals to each person’s circumstances.

Mariana describes her role as supportive and empowering. She encourages small, steady changes and helps people take practical steps toward a more fulfilling life. If you prefer sessions in Spanish she can work in that language as well.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Mariana uses cognitive behavioural ideas to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. CBT-style work often focuses on small, practical changes such as testing thoughts and building new habits, which can help with anxiety, low mood and stress.

She also draws on integrative practice, combining techniques from different approaches to match the person sitting in front of her. That means sessions can vary from learning specific coping skills to discussing life patterns and relationships. Her neuropsychological perspective adds attention to how learning, memory and brain function affect mood and behaviour.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on the person's goals, preferences and how they respond. This collaborative process helps decide what works best over time.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and keeping continuity when routines change. Please confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as the profile does not specify them. Online sessions can make it easier to join from different locations, allow flexible scheduling around work or family, and reduce travel time while keeping a regular rhythm of support.
