Therapeutic Services
Welcome to my counselling and coaching service for individuals and couples I am dedicated to helping you navigate life’s challenges and achieve your goals through , EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing), Transactional Analysis (TA), Somatic Experiencing (SE), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Mindfulness, Meditation, Person-Centred Counselling and CBT.
Adult Therapy
I create a supportive and empowering environment for clients to facilitate their healing journey. My counselling address depression, anxiety, relationships, and self-esteem. I assist clients in understanding and managing their emotions, nurturing healthier relationships, and empowering them to lead more fulfilling lives. I also bring a unique approach to holistic healing through EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing). EMDR’s goal is to help you heal from distressing life experiences.
Relationship Therapy – Couples & Individuals
Drawing upon years of experience in working in CAMHS, the NHS, and private practice, I offer individuals and couples counselling in areas of conflict resolution, relationship problems, trust issues, affairs (online and real), self-esteem, intimacy, confidence building, depression, stress, second families, and coping with decisions around separation and divorce.
Psychosexual Therapy– Couples & Individuals
Embracing a holistic perspective, my psychosexual therapy goes beyond addressing immediate concerns. We delve into the roots of any emotional or psychological barriers that may be impacting your sexual health, fostering a healing process that extends to all facets of your life. Whether you’re navigating issues of desire, communication, or overcoming past traumas, I am dedicated to providing guidance and support every step of the way.
My Work
I am a qualified counsellor with a diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. My work is informed by Mindfulness-Based Approaches, CBT, TA, SE and SFBT. I am trained in EMDR, Couples Therapy and Psychosexual Therapy. I’m a British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) member and adhere to its ethical and professional code.
As an integrative counsellor and coach, I bring a dynamic and personalised approach to my practice, ensuring that each individual receives the therapy that best suits their needs. I understand that there is no one-size-fits-all solution, and I embrace a range of techniques and tools to tailor your therapy sessions.
I offer a professional and confidential one-to-one counselling service to individuals and couples face-to-face in Bucks and online. My service provides help when you feel that you can no longer cope – helping to break free from what has kept you stuck.
I attend monthly supervision with experienced Person-Centered, Couples Therapist and Psychosexual Therapist practitioners. I continue professional development through frequent courses, workshops, and meditation retreats that deepen my core training and expand my experience and specialisms.
Together, we’ll embark on a journey to help you not just to cope but to go beyond your limitations, to break free from the chains that have held you back, and uncover your true potential.
Let this be your motivation to seize each day with optimism, to heal the wounds of the past, and to strive for a life that truly fulfills your heart’s desires.

Therapeutic Work with Individuals
I aim to help individuals overcome challenges and find freedom from what’s keeping them stuck. Whether dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, self-esteem issues, or grief. My mission is to delve deep with you, unravel the roots of your struggles, and collaboratively discover effective solutions. Witnessing positive changes and ultimately transforming lives is not just a profession for me; it’s a passion that fuels my commitment to your well-being. Everyone, whether entwined in a relationship or not, deserves to reach their full potential for contentment and satisfaction in life.

Psychosexual Therapy – Couples and Individuals
I create safe and confidential space, where I will guide you through an exploration of your thoughts, emotions, and experiences related to sexuality. I understand that these aspects of life can be deeply personal and sensitive, and I approach each session with empathy and respect. My goal is not only to unravel the complexities that may be hindering your sexual well-being but also to empower you with the tools and insights needed to foster a healthy and satisfying connection with yourself and your partner.
Something about me….
Before training as a therapist, I had a career as a nurse and worked for many years in the City of London as a scientist. I’ve run my own business, and worked in corporate, private and voluntary organisations.
My other experiences include being a scientist, mentor, life coach, psychotherapist, yoga and meditation teacher. And yes, I understand what it’s like to feel under pressure or be pulled in different directions. All of the above experiences provided me with beneficial lessons.
My journey of self-exploration grew from a sense of discontent with how I was responding to my life – a recognition that I was unhappy. Inspired by the patience and kindness of therapists, meditation and yoga teachers who helped me through my emotional pain, I decided to pursue a career in psychotherapy.
I have taught mindfulness, yoga, and meditation and have practiced them for over twenty years. Nature and creativity are essential parts of my life. I spend my free time in forests and mountains.

Testimonials
‘Marzena has been a godsend to our family and has helped me personally very much in the past several weeks. I felt so defeated and broken when we met, and you’ve helped me parse elements of this family dynamic to better identify how to recognize what I can and should own and where I need to hold others accountable. I look forward to continuing to work with her and my husband on how to create better emotional safety in our family. ‘

Marzena has been working with our teenage son through various issues such as self-esteem and confidence, honesty, communication skills. We can already see massive positive change in such a short time. As a parent who navigates through raising a teenage son, the impact Marzena has had on our entire family is incredible, and the support to our son and us is truly priceless. I would highly recommend Marzena to any family whose child may be struggling and looking for a professional, knowledgeable, caring, trusting and kind support.

Testimonial
‘Working with Marzena has been a transformative experience for both me and my husband. With her guidance, I’ve noticed remarkable progress in my husband’s ability to navigate challenges and setbacks. The strategies and support provided have enabled him to develop a deeper sense of understanding when things don’t go as planned. Instead of reacting negatively, he’s now equipped with effective tools to manage situations when his expectations aren’t met. I am looking forward to our continued journey ahead.’

“I really didn’t know what to expect from the therapy sessions with Marzena – I’d never visited a therapist before – but I am so glad that I decided to ‘take the plunge’.Marzena instantly made me feel comfortable and safe and, amazingly, I was able to talk openly about my feelings and anxieties. She is a warm and friendly lady, is an excellent listener and has a great sense of humour. Combined with this, she is also very professional and always knows when to intervene and/or to challenge.After only 5 sessions I’ve learnt so much and I feel much more content and in control of my life. My anxiety levels have greatly decreased; I’m sleeping much better and friends and family have commented on how much happier and more relaxed I appear. I have learnt to be kinder to myself and genuinely feel much more ‘peaceful’.I’m very grateful to Marzena for the support she’s given me and would absolutely recommend her to others.”
