About Marina

Marina Wright is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family problems. She also supports clients working on self-esteem, motivation and life changes. Marina works in English and Russian and has four years of professional experience. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

Marina believes that each person knows their own story and brings strengths into therapy. In sessions she helps people name what feels difficult and find practical next steps. This can include improving communication, setting boundaries, or rebuilding confidence after separation or loss.

Her way of working blends clear goal‑setting with deeper reflection. Solution-Focused ideas help clients identify small changes that make a big difference. Internal Family Systems offers ways to understand different parts of the self and how they respond under stress.

Marina is direct but warm in session. She aims to make the room feel like a place for honest talk and steady progress. People looking for help with commitment worries, abandonment fears, control or codependency issues often find the mix of practical and reflective work helpful.

How Marina's approaches work online

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, values and choice. It helps when life feels empty or people face big changes, and it supports thinking through what matters most. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps that move a person toward their goals; it is useful for stress, motivation and immediate relationship problems. Internal Family Systems offers a way to notice different parts of the self and how they react under pressure, which can help with codependency, abandonment fears and strong emotional reactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Marina will discuss goals and preferences during early sessions and together they will decide which methods fit best. That collaborative process helps shape whether the focus stays mainly on practical change, deeper reflection, or a mix of both.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy life because sessions can be scheduled around work, travel or family commitments. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed and removes travel time, helping people keep momentum between sessions.
