About Maja
Maja Struthers is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has six years of professional experience helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety or depression. She also supports those coping with grief, relationship strains and changes in life circumstances.
She focuses on practical, down-to-earth work in sessions. Maja treats each person as the expert in their own story and looks for strengths to build on. She aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and respectful of each person's pace.
In her practice she addresses concerns such as low self-esteem, motivation, parenting strain and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues tied to attachment, abandonment, codependency and problems that come from family of origin patterns.
Maja draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients make sense of emotions and develop new ways of coping. In sessions she talks through current difficulties, helps set realistic goals, and practices practical skills people can use outside the room.
Her approach suits people who want a straightforward, collaborative counsellor. Maja works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. If someone wants to begin, they are asked to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to her availability.
How Maja uses evidence-based approaches online
Evidence-based techniques help make emotions easier to understand and act on. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying different, more balanced ways of thinking. This can be useful for anxiety, low mood and worry about decisions.Another approach helps people notice how past relationships shape current responses. It looks at attachment and connection, and supports people who struggle with abandonment, codependency or repeating family patterns. The work often involves reflecting on relationships and trying small changes in how someone relates to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Maja will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they decide which techniques to try. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what feels most useful for the individual.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and less travel time. It can also make it simpler to have shorter check-ins when needed. Please confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed in the biography.
