Marysa De Veer , NCPS

Marysa De Veer is a licensed therapist based in the United Kingdom who combines evidence-informed methods with creative practices to support people through stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and a wide range of life transitions. With seven years of professional practice and over 30 years of personal growth experience, she is accredited by the National Counselling Society and holds the NCPS credential. She also holds a Diploma in Emotional Therapeutic Counselling and has completed specialized training in suicide and self-harm support.

Marysa draws on a warm, person-centered approach to help clients uncover the patterns and emotional triggers that often stem from earlier life experiences. Her work frequently includes gentle inner child exploration, practical exercises, grounding and meditation techniques, and other creative interventions that translate directly into everyday coping skills. Sessions aim to blend empathy with clear, usable tools so clients feel more resilient and better able to navigate day-to-day stressors.

Having lived in Nigeria, Congo, Kenya, the Netherlands, France, and the UK and having run a social enterprise in The Gambia, Marysa brings cultural sensitivity and a broad appreciation for diverse perspectives on healing. As a Kora musician and bookbinding teacher, she often incorporates music and art into therapeutic work when those methods suit a client’s needs. Marysa works in English, Dutch, and French, accepts international clients, and provides sessions via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Marysa uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to clarify what matters most so they can take steps toward a meaningful life. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where values-based action matters.

Attachment-Based Therapy is another core element of her work, focusing on how early relationships shape patterns in adult connections. It helps people explore attachment wounds, improve emotional safety, and build healthier relational habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Marysa works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques as trust and insight develop.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to access support from different locations and at times that suit busy lives. These options allow Marysa and other licensed professionals to deliver consistent, ongoing care while tailoring the format to what helps each person engage most effectively.
