About Marie

Marie Bhoyroo is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with eight years of practice. She sees adults who are carrying stress, anxiety, grief or depression and people who are struggling with relationship and family issues. She also supports those facing parenting pressures, intimacy concerns and the knock-on effects of trauma or abuse.

Marie uses a few different ways of working depending on the issue. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She uses client-centred methods to focus on the person's experience. She also applies cognitive behavioural techniques to help with unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

Sessions are conversational and practical. She listens to what is happening in everyday life and helps people identify small changes they can try. There is time to talk about emotions and the history behind them, and time to practise simple tools for coping and clearer communication.

Marie can support people dealing with anger, sleep problems, self-esteem difficulties and career stress. She also works with fertility and fatherhood concerns, chronic illness and body image issues. Issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties and communication problems are included in her practice.

She offers work in English and French and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment via the See online therapy options button.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Marie often draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and relationships. This approach helps when people notice repeated trust issues, fear of abandonment or patterns in close connections. She also uses client-centred therapy which places the person's experience at the centre of sessions and focuses on listening and reflection to help people understand themselves better.

She may incorporate cognitive behavioural techniques to address specific thought patterns and practical behaviours such as sleep routines, anxiety management or anger responses. These methods give concrete steps people can try between sessions while also attending to emotions and meaning.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Marie will collaborate with the person to identify goals and test what helps most, adjusting methods as needed. That collaborative process helps match methods to the person's needs and preferences.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats use less bandwidth or do not require video, which may suit different day-to-day situations. Registered or accredited professionals can explain the practical arrangements when you schedule the first appointment.
