Maryna Erickson

I currently have some availability for face to face sessions in Hove

Greetings, I am Maryna Erickson, a qualified Humanistic Integrative counsellor, committed to supporting individuals  in their exploration of emotions, fostering self-awareness, attaining self-acceptance and nurturing personal growth.  I value the uniqueness and individuality of each person, recognising that their stories and aspirations are as diverse as their backgrounds.

I began my professional journey as a nurse and it was during this period that I really started appreciating the emotional aspect of care, which laid the foundation for my interest in psychotherapy and my eventual counselling career.

Beyond my professional endeavours, I am deeply devoted to my family and therefore intimately familiar with the intricacies and challenges inherent in balancing professional and personal life. Drawing from this insight, I am able to offer support to individuals navigating relationship complexities, parenting challenges and significant life transitions.

Clients often wonder if their concerns are significant enough to justify seeking help from a counsellor. I'm of the opinion that you don't need to be close to a breaking point to make it okay for yourself to reach out. If you feel the need, feel free to ask for support any time. 

I recognize that building trust takes time, and my approach is primarily client-led, which means that I tailor the pace of the sessions to your comfort. In our sessions, you're free to share without fear of judgement or rejection, whenever you deem it appropriate. I cultivate a safe, caring, and respectful environment while gently encouraging your personal exploration. By integrating various approaches, methods, and theories, I can more effectively meet your specific needs. 

As a Humanistic counsellor I believe in the power of self-discovery and the innate potential within each person. My personal experiences of adaptation and resilience provide me with a unique perspective on life. I am deeply attuned to the complexities of cultural and personal identity.

I have experience working with adults from diverse backgrounds, addressing a broad spectrum of concerns such as anxiety, depression, OCD, low self-esteem, loneliness, relationship challenges, chronic pain and other difficulties.

I am looking forward to hear from you and address any inquiries you may have. Feel free to reach out to me via text message, phone, or email.

For new clients, I offer a complimentary 30-minute initial phone or video consultation. During this consultation we will be able to talk about what brings you to counselling and can decide if I might be the right counsellor for you. 

Subsequent sessions are typically held weekly, maintaining a consistent day and time slot. The session fee is £50 per 50-minute session. Concessions are available for counselling trainees.
