Maria Monk

I am currently working on line and  seeing clients at my home in Streatham Hill. I am have space for two new clients in September 2026.

Hello and welcome.

I'm an Integrative Counsellor, working with individuals and couples through the difficulties and changes that life and relationships can bring.

You may be feeling anxious or overwhelmed, struggling with a loss, facing a difficult decision, or simply feeling that something in your life isn't quite right. 

I’m interested not only in what is happening in your life, but in understanding the experiences and patterns that may be keeping you stuck – and helping you find different ways forward

Relationships are an important part of this. Much of how we understand ourselves develops through our relationships with others – partners, parents, children, friends and colleagues. Difficulties in relationships can often tell us something valuable about ourselves, as well as about what is happening between us and another person.

Working with individuals

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, stress, loss and bereavement – including loss by suicide – relationship difficulties, low confidence, life transitions and times when they feel lost or uncertain about what comes next.

Working with couples

I also work with couples who may be experiencing conflict, communication difficulties, emotional or physical distance, recurring disagreements, or uncertainty about the future of their relationship.

My role isn't to decide who is right or wrong, or to take sides. Instead, I help you slow down what happens between you, so that we can understand the patterns you may have become caught in and what each of you is experiencing underneath them. 

Whether I am working with an individual or a couple, my approach is collaborative and tailored to you. We will work at your pace,  towards the goals that matter most to you.

This is your time to feel supported, understood, and confident in your next steps

If you're considering counselling, you're very welcome to get in touch. We can arrange an initial conversation to talk about what has brought you here and whether working together feels right.

I am registered with the BACP and trained as an Integrative Counsellor, this means that I can bring together different therapeutic approaches in a way that is right for you. Whether you are looking to make sense of the past and family dynamics, have suffered a bereavement, or anxiety is proving challenging, I’m here to listen to your concerns without fear or judgment.  I may bring in some mindfulness and self-compassion exercises to facilitate your journey.

Individual rate - £60

Couples rate - £100

I offer a free 30 minute phone consultation where you can tell me a bit more about yourself and what is going on in your world that has bought you to counselling.  This is also an opportunity for you to ask me any questions you might have about counselling and find out more about me.
