About me

I am a Transpersonal Arts Counsellor with over 8 years of experience.
I have worked with adults addressing themes of trauma, PTSD, chronic depression/anxiety, self harm and end of life support.
My style combines anthroposophic principles when assessing clients' needs and person centred/humanistic approach when in practise.
I am a firm believer that addressing our mental health is paramount if we want to maintain good physical health. To look after ones soul is to look after ones body. If you are ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and health, I promise to be there every step of the way to guide, support and empower you.
My preferable option would be video call but I can also do phone messaging and live-chat if this feels safer for the client.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Maria Lazopoulou. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

I’ve been working with Maria for several months, and I can honestly say she has made a profound impact on my personal growth and emotional well-being. From the very first session, Maria’s warm, approachable nature and empathetic listening style put me completely at ease. She has a rare gift for asking just the right questions—ones that help me uncover my own truths and develop deeper self-awareness.

Maria’s guidance is both skillful and supportive. I’ve never felt judged or rushed; instead, I’ve felt fully understood and respected as an individual. In sessions, she strikes a balance between gentle encouragement and direct, meaningful insights. With her help, I’ve learned healthier coping strategies, increased my self-confidence, and found new ways to navigate challenging life transitions. Her thoughtful homework exercises have also encouraged me to integrate what we discuss into my everyday life, ensuring that what I gain in therapy truly sticks.

Working with Maria has been a life-changing experience. Her kindness, wisdom, and genuine investment in my progress have made me not only appreciate therapy as a powerful tool for healing and growth, but also believe more deeply in my own potential. I’d wholeheartedly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a compassionate, skilled therapist who can truly help them find their way forward.

Maria is very professional and is capable of helping me putting my feeling into words.

She understands and validates my feeling, I feel very safe with her. And she is able to professionally enlighten me with new insight which helps me understand more about myself.

I didn’t like going to therapy previous with other therapists but Maria has made it easy and judgement-free - changed my perception on therapy.

Maria has been incredibly helpful and kind to me whilst I have navigated a really difficult point in my life. She listened attentively and helped me to reframe so many things in my mind with a healthy approach and mindset. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her as a therapist, I feel very fortunate to have had her expertise to guide me and have felt very comfortable to open up and be vulnerable in her presence. She listens with softness and does not judge, and she is able to accurately pull together parts of the puzzle to paint a clearer picture. Some of the complexities I have been working through which she has helped with - family dynamics / family crisis / moving on from romantic relationships / self blame, doubt & criticism. Thank you Maria, i'll be forever grateful.
