Marysa De Veer
Creative person-centred therapy with practical tools
About Marysa
Marysa De Veer uses a person-centred, creative approach to therapy. She combines practical exercises with gentle exploration to help people manage anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties and past trauma. Marysa aims to offer straightforward tools that fit into everyday life and promote steady progress.
She has seven years of professional practice and holds NCPS, which denotes registration with the National Counselling Society. Her work draws on a mix of talking therapy, mindfulness and expressive methods such as music or art.
Background and approach
Sessions often include grounding exercises and simple meditations that can be practised between meetings. Marysa pays attention to how early life experiences and attachment patterns shape current struggles. She uses inner child work and attachment-based ideas to help people recognise recurring emotional patterns.
This makes it easier to try new ways of coping and relating. Her background includes long periods living in several countries, which informs a sensitive awareness of culture, identity and spirituality in the therapy room. She has also run a social enterprise and brings that community perspective into her work.
Outside of talking, Marysa draws on music and crafts as therapeutic tools. She is a Kora musician and teaches bookbinding, and she sometimes suggests creative exercises to help people access different parts of their experience. People who want a warm, practical and creative approach to change can expect sessions that balance listening with clear, usable strategies.
The aim is steady, manageable steps toward feeling more resilient and in control.

Sessions & fees
Approaches you can use online and why they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then focus on taking values-based action. It can be useful for anxiety, grief and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with practical tasks, which suits depression, anxiety and sleep or eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people try new ways of relating and regulating emotion.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Marysa will discuss goals, preferences and the issues you bring, and will help decide which methods to try together. That collaborative process means tools are chosen to fit your needs rather than imposing a single method.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you use body language and visual exercises, phone sessions are often simpler when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit short check-ins into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep regular sessions, try creative exercises at home and practise techniques between appointments.
