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 manage stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She meets clients with everyday worries about relationships, parenting and career pressures and helps them find practical ways forward.
Maja works in a straightforward, supportive way. She treats each person as the expert on their life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions aim to make small, steady changes that feel achievable rather than overwhelming.
People often come to her when they are coping with life changes, low self-esteem or feelings of emptiness. She also supports those facing intimacy issues, family problems, anger and compassion fatigue. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client and on practical steps to improve day-to-day wellbeing.
Maja spends time listening and helping clients map out clearer goals. She encourages reflection on patterns such as attachment or codependency so clients can try new ways of relating. Work on communication and boundaries is grounded in simple, repeatable actions.
If someone is unsure how to begin, Maja offers a calm first conversation to clarify goals and next steps. She aims to empower people to make changes that fit their life and values.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Maja uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical work. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and then try manageable experiments to change them. This kind of work suits anxiety, low mood and motivation problems because it breaks larger issues into small steps.Another approach looks at attachment and relationship patterns. It helps people understand their reactions in close relationships and practise different ways of communicating and setting boundaries. That work often targets intimacy issues, codependency and family of origin concerns.
Choosing a method is a collaborative process. Maja will discuss different approaches and agree on goals with each person. Together they explore what feels most useful and adapt the work as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need sessions that fit around work or childcare commitments.
