About Marie
Marie Reid is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing addictions, relationship strain, trauma, depression and anxiety. Marie believes each person knows their own story and has strengths to build on. She aims to offer steady support while people take steps towards change.
Her approach is grounded in client-centred work that keeps the person's perspective central. She often uses motivational interviewing to help people clarify goals and find reasons to change. Narrative therapy is used to look at how life stories are told and which parts people might want to revise.
Marie helps people tackle practical problems as well as emotional ones. That might mean talking through relationship patterns, identifying small steps away from alcohol or drug use, or working on sleep and self-esteem. She also supports people facing grief, career uncertainty, or stressful life changes.
Sessions focus on straightforward conversation and shared planning. Marie encourages short-term goals and solutions that can fit into daily life. She works with people who want to reshape their relationship with money as part of broader life changes, helping them notice the thoughts and habits that affect financial decisions.
Her style is warm and non-judgemental, with an emphasis on listening and helping people find their next steps. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange appointments according to the schedule provided.
How these approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding what matters to the person. The counsellor follows the person's lead, reflecting back concerns and priorities to help them clarify what they want to change. This approach supports issues like low self-esteem, relationship worries and grief.Motivational Interviewing helps people identify their own reasons for change and build motivation step by step. It uses focused conversations to weigh up pros and cons and set realistic goals, which can be useful for addictions and lifestyle changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marie will check in with the person about their goals and preferences and try different ways of working together. That discussion is collaborative, and plans can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online counselling can make sessions easier to fit into a busy life, for example allowing appointments during a lunch break or from a quieter room. It can also make check-ins shorter when that suits the person, or let someone avoid travel time. Confirm the specific session formats available before booking so arrangements match personal needs.
