About Marina

Marina Wright is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, low self-esteem and life changes. She uses practical conversations to support people dealing with emptiness, commitment worries, communication problems and the strain of divorce or separation. Sessions can also address attachment questions such as abandonment, codependency and avoidant patterns. Marina works in English and Russian and accepts international clients.

Marina draws on existential ideas to help people clarify what matters to them. She uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set small, realistic steps towards change. Internal Family Systems is another approach she brings in to look at the different parts of a person and how they interact. These methods are used flexibly and simply in sessions so people can try things that feel doable.

Her style is conversational and down-to-earth. Marina treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and looks for strengths to build on. She aims to make the work manageable, breaking bigger problems into clear, short-term goals. This practical way of working helps clients notice progress between meetings.

Marina has four years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. She offers coaching-style support alongside counselling for people who want focused help with motivation or life changes. Her background suits those wanting a calm, reflective approach with practical outcomes.

How her approaches work in online therapy

Existential Therapy helps people name what matters and make choices that fit their values; it is useful when life feels empty or uncertain. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and quick goals to change patterns that keep causing stress and anxiety. Internal Family Systems looks at the different parts inside a person so they can understand internal conflicts like self-criticism or avoidance and work to change them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marina will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and will try methods collaboratively rather than insisting on one way. Together they will test what feels helpful and adjust the plan as sessions progress.

If you are thinking about online therapy, check the session options before booking so you know how meetings are arranged. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy week easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to work with a counsellor who speaks your language even if you live in a different country.
