About Marina

Marina Wright is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, as well as self-esteem and coaching needs. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment and guilt and shame.

Marina uses plain conversation and focused interventions. She treats the person rather than a label and helps people name what feels heavy. Sessions often begin by clarifying what matters most now and what a small next step could be.

Her work draws on Existential Therapy to look at meaning and life choices, and Solution-Focused Therapy to build practical steps forward. She also uses Internal Family Systems ideas to help people understand different parts of themselves that carry blame or fear.

In sessions she listens for patterns in relationships and family life that feed stress or low self-worth. She helps people notice how old stories still shape current decisions and offers ways to practise different responses. Conversations move between understanding what happened and trying out clearer, more manageable options.

Marina can work in English and Russian and accepts international clients. She asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire before booking a first session, so she can match the work to the person’s aims. The approach is practical and steady, aimed at making everyday choices feel a little less overwhelming.

How her therapeutic approaches are used online

Marina draws on Existential Therapy to help people name what matters to them and consider choices that shape their day-to-day life. This approach looks at values, meaning and responsibility in simple, practical ways. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to identify small, achievable steps and build on what already works. Internal Family Systems helps people recognise different inner parts that carry blame, fear or longing and to relate to those parts more clearly.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Marina treats this as a collaborative process - she will discuss how these methods might fit your aims and adjust the focus based on your goals and preferences. The early sessions are used to try things out and decide what feels most useful.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a usual day, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or avoiding the need to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals often use these practical benefits to help therapy fit into everyday life rather than reshape it around appointments.
