About Marilyn
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 7 years' experience. Marilyn Johnson helps with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, self-esteem, parenting concerns, depression, ADHD and trauma. She uses a client-centred approach and aims to make it easier to say what matters to you.
Marilyn keeps sessions focused on what feels most pressing. She listens without judgement and encourages people to say what they have been holding back. That often starts with small, practical steps toward clearer thinking and steadier feelings. Her way of working emphasises building trust so clients can speak more openly over time.
She draws on client-centred methods to follow each person's pace and priorities. For some people, talking through family patterns, attachment and abandonment issues comes first. For others, the immediate aim is managing anxiety, coping with loss, or making day-to-day life easier when ADHD or workplace stress is a factor.
Marilyn has experience supporting people across age groups, including children, teenagers and adults. Her background includes use of play therapy with younger clients when that fit was needed. She has worked with a range of issues such as hoarding, infidelity, jealousy, money worries, narcissism, forgiveness and young adult transitions.

How client-centred work looks in online sessions
Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps the person clarify thoughts and feelings. This approach is commonly used for issues such as anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulty and grief because it helps people feel understood and more able to talk about painful topics.Marilyn also uses techniques adapted for younger clients, such as play-based activities when relevant. Play methods let children show feelings and storylines they might not say in words, which can be useful for family issues, attachment concerns and bereavement.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Marilyn will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying different ways of working in the early sessions and agreeing what feels most helpful going forward.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt pacing, use screen or phone time differently, and plan sessions to fit work breaks or family routines.
