About Colette

Colette Marino works with people on stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and parenting concerns. She uses a person-centred view that recognises clients as experts in their own lives and draws on their strengths. Colette is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she has 18 years of professional experience.

Colette offers straightforward, practical conversations that help people disentangle worry and make clearer choices. She listens for patterns that maintain stress and helps clients try new ways of responding. Sessions are focused and paced to fit what each person needs in the moment.

Her approach values what clients already know about themselves. She helps people name what is difficult, notice the impact, and work out small steps to change day-to-day routines and responses. That can include looking at communication in relationships and strategies for managing anxiety and stress.

In work with trauma and abuse she takes care to move at a pace the client finds manageable and to keep the focus on present coping alongside processing past events. For parenting concerns she supports parents in finding clearer boundaries, routines and calmer responses to family stress.

Colette practises in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. She has 18 years' experience and is a member of the BACP. To begin, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Colette works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help with common problems such as anxiety, stress and relationship strain. One approach focuses on noticing patterns of thought and behaviour that keep worry active, and on trying practical strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines. Another approach emphasises careful, paced work after trauma, concentrating on present coping skills alongside gradual processing of difficult memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss options with the client, try methods that suit their goals, and adjust the plan as progress and preferences become clear. This is a collaborative process that aims to match technique to need rather than applying a single method to every problem.

Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and travel, and they can offer shorter check-ins when time is limited. Some formats also reduce the need to be on camera or lower bandwidth demands, which helps sessions fit into a busy week.
