Marysa De Veer , NCPS

Marysa De Veer is a licensed therapist who combines professional training with creative practice to support people facing relationship difficulties, grief, anxiety, and the long-term impact of past trauma. She draws on seven years of professional experience alongside decades of personal development to guide clients toward greater resilience and self-understanding.

Her approach is warm and person-centered, focusing on what lies beneath emotional patterns and triggers. Sessions often include gentle inner child work, practical exercises, and creative methods such as music and art to open new ways of expressing and exploring difficult feelings. Clients are introduced to meditation and grounding techniques that can be used in everyday life to improve emotional regulation and coping.

Marysa holds NCPS accreditation with the National Counselling Society and a Diploma in Emotional Therapeutic Counselling - a formal qualification in therapeutic practice. She has received specialised training in supporting people who experience suicidal thinking and self-harm, maintains professional insurance, and engages in regular clinical supervision to support her practice.

Having lived in multiple countries and led a social enterprise in The Gambia, Marysa brings a multicultural perspective to therapy and values how culture, spirituality, and identity shape wellbeing. She is also a Kora musician and bookbinding teacher, and often integrates creative practices into therapeutic work when appropriate. Marysa is accepting clients, including international clients, and offers sessions tailored to each person’s needs.

Evidence-informed approaches adapted for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It emphasizes values-based action, helping clients clarify what matters most and take practical steps toward a more meaningful life - useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns in intimacy and connection. This approach supports clients in understanding attachment needs and building healthier relational habits, which can be helpful for relationship challenges, abandonment issues, and family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Marysa works with each client to identify which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts techniques over time to ensure therapy stays relevant and effective.

Online therapy offers flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to maintain consistency, access care from different locations, and choose the format that feels most comfortable. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these formats to deliver the same therapeutic principles and practical skills as in-person work while accommodating clients’ schedules and circumstances.
