About Marina

Marina Wright works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, self-esteem issues and coaching for life changes. She uses a collaborative approach that treats clients as the expert in their own story. Marina is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years of professional experience.

Marina helps people facing midlife challenges, transitions, and the practical pressures of everyday life. She supports those dealing with anxiety, difficulties in close relationships, and the fallout from separation or divorce. She also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment patterns, codependency, and communication problems.

Her practice draws on Existential Therapy to look at meaning and choice in life, Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, workable steps and Internal Family Systems to notice different parts of the self. Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-oriented while allowing time to reflect on deeper emotional patterns such as dissociation, emptiness and shame.

Marina works with issues around control and dependency, including avoidant and dependent personality features, and with immigration-related stresses. She also addresses feelings of guilt, the need for forgiveness, and difficulties with commitment.

Sessions are offered in English and Russian. International clients may be accepted; clients should check options when they book. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange an initial session.

How Marina uses her approaches in online work

Existential Therapy helps people think about what matters to them and the choices they make; it can be useful for midlife change, direction and questions about meaning. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and on what is already working, which can help with immediate problems like stress and relationship communication. Internal Family Systems involves noticing and working with different parts of the self, and can be used when people struggle with patterns such as self-criticism, dissociation or dependent behaviours.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marina will discuss the options with each person and decide together what fits the client’s needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative process may combine brief goals with deeper reflective work as needed.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so clients should confirm available options when they book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss practical arrangements with Marina when scheduling to match sessions to day-to-day routines.
