About Marie
Marie Bhoyroo is a counsellor who supports people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, grief or life changes. She is experienced with parenting concerns and with struggles around relationships, self‑esteem and intimacy. Marie works in English and French and draws on eight years of practice in the United Kingdom under the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).
Marie prefers a calm, listening approach. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person sitting in front of her.
Background and approach
She helps clients name painful patterns, understand attachment and relationship dynamics, and try simple steps to feel steadier day to day. Her way of working combines client‑centred listening with practical strategies from cognitive behavioural approaches. That means she offers space to be heard while also trying small changes in thinking and behaviour to reduce anxiety or lift mood.
She also uses ideas from attachment work and emotion‑focused therapy to look at how early relationships shape current responses. This can help people who struggle with trust, abandonment fears, or repeated relationship difficulties. Marie tailors sessions to the person’s goals.
She offers short exercises, reflective conversation and planning for realistic next steps. The emphasis is on clear, doable actions that fit family life and parenting pressures. People commonly raise issues such as sleep problems, compassion fatigue, chronic illness, fertility worries and career stress.
Marie helps them sort priorities, cope with setbacks and build small routines that make daily life feel more manageable.

How these approaches translate to online work
Attachment‑based work pays attention to how early relationships shape current responses. Online sessions can help people recognise patterns like abandonment fears or avoidant behaviour and try new ways of relating in daily life. Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and empathy; the therapist provides a non‑judgemental space so clients can speak freely and arrive at their own insights. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thought and behaviour patterns and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety, lift mood, or improve sleep. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Marie will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods fit best. That collaborative planning means the work adapts as needs change, and clients are involved in choosing practical steps and exercises that suit them. Online formats make therapy easier to fit into busy family or work life. Video calls allow face‑to‑face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check‑in is needed. Live chat and text‑based messaging suit brief updates, written reflection, or people who prefer typing. These options offer flexibility and make it simpler to keep continuity of care while trying different ways of working.Questions people ask about Marie
