About Marina
Counsellor and BACP member Marina Wright has four years of experience working with stress, anxiety, relationships, family matters, self esteem and coaching. She speaks English and Russian and sees people from the United Kingdom and beyond.
Marina works in a straightforward manner. She treats clients as the experts in their own lives and focuses on what is happening now. Sessions are practical and aim to identify small, manageable changes. She also pays attention to how past experiences shape present patterns, such as attachment and abandonment issues.
Her work often addresses communication problems, codependency and commitment worries. She helps people who feel stuck during life changes, separation or divorce, and those coping with guilt, shame or emptiness. Marina brings attention to patterns like avoidant or dependent personality traits and to dissociation when it appears.
Marina uses a mix of approaches to fit the person in front of her. She draws on Existential Therapy to look at meaning and choices. She uses Solution-Focused techniques to set clear goals and work towards them. Internal Family Systems ideas help where inner parts and self-leadership are useful to understand behaviour.
If you choose to contact her you will be asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and to book an initial session. Fees vary with location and sessions run on a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Marina uses therapeutic approaches in online counselling
Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility. It helps when life changes, midlife questions or feelings of emptiness are present by encouraging clear decisions and personal responsibility.Solution-Focused work concentrates on small, practical steps and clear goals. It suits people who want to move from problem talk to concrete next steps and quicker behavioural changes.
Internal Family Systems recognises different parts within a person and helps develop a steadier self-leadership. This can help with attachment issues, codependent patterns and feelings of dissociation.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about aims, try an approach, and adjust based on what helps. This is a collaborative process that uses the client's preferences and goals to shape sessions.
Confirm current session options before booking as formats are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins between commitments and offer options that do not require being on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can use online work to reach people living in different places, while tailoring the method to each person's needs.
