I have had sessions with Marvalyn for a couple of years and they have been truly life changing. From the beginning she made me feel heard, understood and cared about. She helped me process and work through numerous things I had never addressed before with patience and encouragement. A lot of where I am today is because of her wisdom and guidance and listening ear. She is honestly wonderful!

Marvalyn is my rock and my sounding board. She has helped me see things about myself that I never even thought through. She is empathic and a great listener. I am so happy to be able to work with her.

More about Marvalyn

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I have many years’ experiences in the social care sector so understand the challenges faced by individuals within society today. I bring this wealth of experience into the therapy room and combine social / psychodynamic and person-centred approaches to all my interactions. I have recently retrained as a life coach so can enable you to take the next steps to bring about the change that you require.

Using all these approaches I am sure that I can support you in achieving the changes that you require as we journey together. Throughout my career I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, faith based as well as issues surrounding ethnicity and discrimination

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach also includes motivational interviewing – so I am able to match your requirements to my skills set.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

If you think that I can help you then get in touch soon.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I’ve had quite a few therapists before but Marvalyn is by far the best. She listens and doesn’t give generic advice. She understands me and challenges how I think in a way that doesn’t shame me. She is incredible!

Marvalyn was so amazing! So kind and patient, a really lovely person and easy to talk to. I couldn’t have asked for a more understanding therapist with really good guidance, and if I could pluck 5 real stars from the sky and put them here for her I would!
