Mary Weavers, BACP

Mary Weavers is a qualified person-centred counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of professional counselling experience. She is accredited with the BACP - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which denotes membership of a recognised professional body and a commitment to ethical practice.

Born in the UK to American parents and raised largely in the United States, she has spent the last 30 years living and working in Hong Kong, Botswana, and England. Those international experiences, combined with a naturally empathetic manner and developed counselling skills, shape the way she connects with people from diverse backgrounds.

She supports individuals dealing with stress and anxiety, grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression, motivation challenges, and broader life transitions. Mary also works with people facing issues related to cancer, chronic pain, illness and disability, divorce and separation, fertility concerns, end-of-life and hospice matters, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, multicultural concerns, women’s issues, and workplace difficulties.

Mary works to foster an open, non-judgmental environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored. She encourages clients to take the courageous first steps toward a more fulfilling life and offers steady support throughout the therapeutic process.

Client-Centered Care and Online Therapy Options

Client-Centered Therapy is at the heart of Mary Weavers' practice. This approach focuses on offering empathic listening and unconditional positive regard so that clients can explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace. It is particularly helpful for people navigating anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes because it encourages self-directed insight and personal growth.

Mary applies the person-centred ethos in ways that respond to individual circumstances - for example when supporting someone through chronic illness, bereavement, or workplace stress. The emphasis is on understanding each person's experience and collaborating to find what feels most helpful rather than imposing a fixed set of techniques.

Finding the right therapeutic fit is part of the journey and Mary approaches this work collaboratively. She will discuss needs, goals, and preferences with each client and adapt the way she works to suit those priorities. Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to maintain regular contact, balance appointments with daily life, and access support from licensed professionals when it suits the client.
