Therapeutic Services
Welcome to my counselling, therapeutic and coaching service for individuals and couples. I’m here to help you overcome challenges and reach your goals using proven approaches like EMDR (a therapy that helps heal from distressing events), Transactional Analysis, Somatic Experiencing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Meditation, Person-Centred Counselling, and CBT.
Adult Therapy
I provide a safe and supportive space to help people heal and feel better. I work with problems like feeling sad, anxious, having low confidence, or struggling in relationships. I help people understand and manage their feelings, build stronger relationships, and live happier lives.
I also use a special therapy called EMDR, which helps people heal from distressing life experiences.
Relationship Therapy – Couples & Individuals
I have many years of experience helping people in mental health services, the NHS, and private practice. I work with individuals and couples to improve relationships, solve conflicts, rebuild trust, and deal with issues like affairs, low self-esteem, intimacy, and confidence. I also support people facing stress, depression, family challenges, and tough decisions about separation or divorce.
Therapy for Compulsive Sexual Behaviors
Some people find themselves caught in patterns of porn or sexual behaviour that feel hard to manage — even when life looks fine on the outside. My C.H.O.I.C.E. Program offers a safe, confidential space to explore what’s behind these habits and regain calm, control, and confidence. This isn’t about judgment or labels — it’s about freedom, understanding, and building healthier connections. Helping people find freedom from sexual habits — without shame.

My Work
I am an experienced and qualified counsellor with a diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. I use different types of therapy, like mindfulness, CBT, and EMDR, to help people feel better. I’m also trained in couple therapy and therapy for compulsive sexual behaviors. As a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I follow strict rules to keep my work professional.

I understand that everyone is different, so I use a mix of tools and techniques to make sure the therapy fits your needs. My goal is to help you feel less stuck, build confidence, and discover your true potential.
I keep learning and improving my skills by attending regular training, workshops, and meditation retreats to make sure I’m giving you the best care possible.
We’ll work together to help you move past what’s holding you back, grow stronger, and reach your full potential.
Let this be your chance to heal, feel hopeful, and create a life that makes you happy…..

Therapeutic Work with Individuals
I help people deal with challenges and feel less stuck. Whether you’re feeling sad, stressed, worried, anxious, struggling with relationships, or finding it hard to feel good about yourself, I’m here to support you. Together, we’ll explore what’s causing these feelings and find ways to help you feel better and more confident. I love seeing people make positive changes and live happier lives. Everyone deserves to feel good about themselves and enjoy life, whether they’re in a relationship or not.
✓
Relationship Therapy – Couples and Individuals
I help individuals and couples improve their relationships. This could mean solving arguments, rebuilding trust, dealing with affairs (both online and in real life), improving confidence, or coping with stress. I also help people adjust to big changes, like second families or deciding about separation and divorce.

Therapy for Compulsive Sexual Behaviors
Helping people find freedom from sexual habits — without shame
Many people today find themselves stuck in patterns of sexual or porn use that feel hard to control — habits that might bring short-term relief but leave a sense of emptiness, guilt, or frustration afterwards. You might not see yourself as “addicted,” but perhaps you’ve noticed it’s getting in the way of your relationships, focus, or confidence. My C.H.O.I.C.E. Program is designed for people who want to understand and change these patterns without shame.

Something about me….

Before training as a therapist, I had a career as a nurse and worked for many years in the City of London as a scientist. I’ve run my own business, and worked in corporate, private and voluntary organisations.
I’ve been a scientist, mentor, life coach, psychotherapist, and a yoga and meditation teacher. I know what it feels like to be stressed or pulled in many directions. These experiences taught me a lot and helped me grow.
My journey of self-exploration grew from a sense of dissatisfaction with how I was responding to my life – I recognised that I was truly unhappy. Inspired by the patience and kindness of therapists, meditation and yoga teachers who helped me through my emotional pain, I decided to pursue a career in psychotherapy.
I have taught mindfulness, yoga, and meditation and have practiced them for over twenty years. Nature and creativity are essential parts of my life. I spend my free time in forests and mountains.

YOUR JOURNEY BEGINS HERE

We’ll work together to help you understand yourself, grow, and heal—whether you need support with feelings, and relationships, or finding more balance and happiness in your life.
I’M HERE TO GUIDE YOU.

Testimonials
‘Marzena has been a godsend to our family and has helped me personally very much in the past several weeks. I felt so defeated and broken when we met, and you’ve helped me parse elements of this family dynamic to better identify how to recognize what I can and should own and where I need to hold others accountable. I look forward to continuing to work with her and my husband on how to create better emotional safety in our family. ‘

Marzena has been working with our teenage son through various issues such as self-esteem and confidence, honesty, communication skills. We can already see massive positive change in such a short time. As a parent who navigates through raising a teenage son, the impact Marzena has had on our entire family is incredible, and the support to our son and us is truly priceless. I would highly recommend Marzena to any family whose child may be struggling and looking for a professional, knowledgeable, caring, trusting and kind support.

‘Working with Marzena has been a transformative experience for both me and my husband. With her guidance, I’ve noticed remarkable progress in my husband’s ability to navigate challenges and setbacks. The strategies and support provided have enabled him to develop a deeper sense of understanding when things don’t go as planned. Instead of reacting negatively, he’s now equipped with effective tools to manage situations when his expectations aren’t met. I am looking forward to our continued journey ahead.’

“I really didn’t know what to expect from the therapy sessions with Marzena – I’d never visited a therapist before – but I am so glad that I decided to ‘take the plunge’.Marzena instantly made me feel comfortable and safe and, amazingly, I was able to talk openly about my feelings and anxieties. She is a warm and friendly lady, is an excellent listener and has a great sense of humour. Combined with this, she is also very professional and always knows when to intervene and/or to challenge.After only 5 sessions I’ve learnt so much and I feel much more content and in control of my life. My anxiety levels have greatly decreased; I’m sleeping much better and friends and family have commented on how much happier and more relaxed I appear. I have learnt to be kinder to myself and genuinely feel much more ‘peaceful’.I’m very grateful to Marzena for the support she’s given me and would absolutely recommend her to others.”

Marzena has been transformational for me! I was feeling upset, frustrated, highly anxious and completely stuck. Marzena helped guide me through to enable me to feel differently about my myself and ‘difficult relationships’. I now feel empowered and am able to listen to and feel my emotions without anxiety. My husband and I have also had joint counselling with Marzena which has been hugely positive for our relationship. We are now much more able to communicate positively and navigate our way through difficulties together. I cannot recommend Marzena enough and am so grateful to have found her! ”
