My name is Maria Rocha, I am a qualified Counsellor, Clinical Transpersonal Regressive Hypnotherapist and Supervisor, Registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)) and General Hypnotherapy Standards council (GHSC).
I have a spiritual background and I believe we are all connected. I believe we are not on earth by chance but to fulfil a higher calling, which can be simply learning how ‘to be happy’ by being conscious of ourselves, of humanity and of the world.
I work with a wide range of techniques from different approaches such as Psychodynamic, CBT, Gestalt, Integrative, Transpersonal Hypnotherapy, Person Centered, Psychosynthesis, to Hypnoanalysis, Solution Focused therapy and a few more Holistic Therapies.
In this way, I will be able to help you to understand what is happening right now in your life, trace it back to the root that caused the pain/problem, heal what needs to be healed and strengthen your sense of identity so that you will be more conscious of who you are and your life.
Together, we will address your life’s problems on a physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual level.
Let me help you!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- 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.

Maria is wonderful . I’m only a couple of weeks in and I already feel like I’ve known her for a lifetime. Maria is gentle but firm , very analytical and really knows how to get the deep information out of you in a comfortable manner . She holds you accountable and is extremely professional. I Was not expecting to click immediately with my therapist but she’s made it happen. Thankyou Maria :)
