Maria Marchant

Psychotherapy with me offers a confidential and emotionally safe space for reflection, clarity, and growth.  A place where you can speak freely and feel genuinely heard.

I work with individuals navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, low mood, trauma, bereavement, identity shifts, relational difficulties, and personal development. My practice is grounded in compassion, clinical integrity, and a deep respect for each person’s unique story.

As an integrative psychotherapist, I draw on a broad therapeutic framework - including EMDR, CBT, and relational psychotherapy - to tailor our work to your needs. My approach is informed not only by professional training, but by lived experience. I understand the complexity of emotional life and the quiet strength it takes to seek support.

Therapy is collaborative and responsive. It’s not a clinical transaction - it’s a human process. I aim to create a space where you feel safe enough to be vulnerable, and supported enough to move forward with confidence and self-trust.

I am delighted to be able to offer face to face,  on-line or telephone counselling and I have my own therapy practice room, which is located in Chislehurst.   

I will send you specific instructions for finding me when you have made your first therapy session booking.

The location of my practice is easily accessible by train (Chislehurst or Sidcup) with bus links dropping you practically at my door. I am conveniently located close to the A20.

I am also accredited so can accept clients with private health care for BUPA, AXA, Aviva, WPA and Vitality.

 My session rates are available via my website which are detailed on this Â鶹ԭ´´ page.  

I provide clinical supervision for:

• Counsellors in private practice

• Counsellors in training (including report writing for training providers)

• Individuals and groups working within organisational settings

My supervision style is collaborative, reflective, and grounded in safeguarding awareness. I aim to create a space where supervisees feel supported, professionally held, and encouraged to explore their therapeutic identity with confidence and care.  I believe in working with respect and openness - where supervision is always a place to speak freely.   

Reduced rates are available for trainee therapists working toward required counselling hours.

Clinical Supervision

My supervision practice is rooted in relational depth, clinical integrity, and a commitment to emotional safety for both supervisees and their clients.

Originally trained in person-centred and psychodynamic approaches, I’ve since integrated CBT into my therapeutic framework, allowing for a flexible and responsive style that supports a wide range of client presentations.  I believe in developing my training and have now incorporated EMDR into my practice as a therapist.  I have experience working with both children and adults across diverse settings, and I bring this breadth into supervision with care and nuance.

I offer supervision for:

• Counsellors in private practice

• Counsellors in training (including training reports)

• Individuals and groups working within organisations

Reduced rates are available for trainee therapists working toward required counselling hours.

My aim as a supervisor is to foster open, reflective, and ethically sound relationships. I offer a space where supervisees can explore their therapeutic work with confidence, curiosity, and support. I place strong emphasis on safeguarding, ethical practice, and the wellbeing of both therapist and client.

Choosing a supervisor is a meaningful decision. Whether you're seeking supervision for the first time or navigating a transition, I offer an initial consultation to explore what you need and how I might support you.

Supervision is available in person, via video link, or by phone.
