About Marysa
Marysa De Veer is a counsellor who blends narrative ideas with person-centred care. She works with people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship strain or big life changes. Marysa brings seven years of professional practice and registration with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).
Her sessions focus on the stories people tell about themselves and their lives. She helps clients spot recurring patterns and understand where those patterns began.
Background and approach
This often leads to clearer choices and small, practical steps forward. Marysa uses creative methods alongside talking therapy. Music, art and simple exercises may be used to access feelings that are hard to put into words.
She also teaches grounding and breathing techniques that can help in stressful moments. Her background includes living in several countries and running a social enterprise, experiences that inform how she sees culture and identity in therapy. She describes the work as collaborative and gentle, with room for practical tools and reflective exploration.
Marysa holds a Diploma in Emotional Therapeutic Counselling and has additional training in suicide and self-harm support. She is insured and engages in regular supervision. Sessions are offered in English, Dutch and French, and she sees clients in the United Kingdom as well as international clients by online formats.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Marysa frames therapy as a personal process that mixes understanding the past with learning skills for the present.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Marysa directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.

Narrative and practical approaches for online therapy
Marysa combines Narrative ideas with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-informed thinking to help people untangle painful patterns and find workable choices. Narrative work looks at the stories people carry and helps reframe unhelpful narratives so new possibilities can emerge. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety, depression and life changes. Attachment-based ideas explore how early connection patterns influence current relationships and self-understanding, which can be useful for intimacy and trust issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work and happens together. Marysa will discuss options, try techniques in session and adjust the plan based on what helps most. The aim is a collaborative process that mixes understanding with practical steps and creative methods.
Online formats make therapy more flexible. Video calls provide face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera, live chat works well for quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on progress and practical coping skills.
