Marie ReidBACP

Marie Reid is a counsellor who uses a client-focused approach to help people through hard times. She works from the view that each person knows their own story and brings strengths to face challenges. Marie has three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and offers supportive, practical conversations for people who are feeling stuck.

Her main areas include addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also helps with stress, anxiety, grief, sleep problems, self-esteem and career concerns. Marie lists specific interests such as adoption and foster care, communication problems, and caregiver stress among others.

In sessions she listens first and follows the client's lead. She uses client-centred ways of working that focus on the person rather than imposing solutions. Motivational interviewing features when someone wants to change behaviours such as substance use, helping them weigh options and find internal reasons to move forward.

Narrative and solution-focused ideas shape how she works on goals. Narrative techniques help people reframe difficult events and separate themselves from problems. Solution-focused tools help plan small, achievable steps so progress is visible and practical.

Marie accepts international clients and conducts work in English. She uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people follow the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How Marie uses talking therapies online

Client-Centred Therapy means the session is steered by the person who comes for help. The counsellor listens, reflects and follows what matters most, which suits issues like depression, grief or relationship strain. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational strategy to support behaviour change. It helps people who are ambivalent about changing habits such as substance use by exploring personal reasons to move forward.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Marie will discuss which methods feel most useful and adapt the mixture as work progresses. That way therapy stays focused on practical goals the person wants to reach rather than on a fixed technique.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm which options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around daily life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a work break. It can also help when quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth are needed, instead of attending in person. Marie accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English, and she uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
