Maia Rowe Integrative Therapist London E8Maia Rowe:

Integrative Trainee Therapist (BACP Student Member)


My name is Maia Rowe and I am a trainee Integrative Counsellor at HQ Therapy. I am currently seeing clients online, offering both long-term and short-term therapy.

Life can be difficult but the right support can be life-changing. Whether you’ve had previous therapy or this is your first time thinking about it, I’m here to help you understand what you can expect working with me.

Seeking out therapy can feel daunting, so we will work collaboratively at a pace that feels right for you.

Whether presenting with a specific issue or simply to gain deeper understanding and self-awareness, I pride myself on providing a warm and non-judgemental space, where clients can be themselves and explore their challenges freely and confidentially.

Within this space, you can slow down and reconnect with yourself, feeling truly seen, heard, and supported.

Additionally, therapy offers the chance to develop tools and resources that extend beyond the session, enhancing resilience and self-compassion when navigating life’s challenges.

 

My approach:
As a student member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, I work under the BACP Ethical Framework, which helps to guide my practice and provides us with a secure foundation for working ethically together.

I believe that no two clients are the same and am passionate about understanding the world through your perspective, with a deep respect for who you are and where you want to be.

My approach is ‘integrative’, meaning I draw on different therapeutic methods and approaches depending on the individual person’s needs and unique lived experience. These include but are not limited to psychodynamic, person-centred and existential theories that can help you find meaning, direction and the courage to face life’s challenges.

I have experience working with a diverse range of clients from different backgrounds, genders, religions and sexual orientations with awareness and sensitivity and have a special interest in the role of language in the therapy process.

I have worked with clients experiencing a range of different challenges including but not limited to depression, anxiety, grief, neurodiversity, relationship problems and low self-esteem.

Above all, I believe that therapeutic relationship lies at the centre of the work and how we ‘fit’ as two people is integral to building trust and working collaboratively. So if you feel we could work well together, feel free to get in contact so that we can arrange a 15-minute consultation session.

I look forward to meeting you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should I Seek Therapy?

Many people, new to this type of help, believe that they need to be suffering from “mental illness” or serious “psychological problems”, or be in crisis in order for therapy and counselling to be appropriate for them. This is a common misconception; anyone can benefit from therapy when it comes to helping you deal with your personal feelings and problems, make positive changes in your life, and understand yourself better.

So what is therapy and counselling? If you’re new to this world then the first steps can sometimes be the most difficult. Therapy can be a very effective treatment for a whole range of personal problems covering areas from physical and emotional problems, different types of behavioural disorders, through to human sexuality issues and a host of wellbeing and complementary therapy techniques.

Any problem you have that is causing you concern, anxiety or distress is a valid and appropriate reason to reach out and find a therapist and talk to them about it. Far from something to be ashamed of, acknowledging your vulnerability and asking for help is a sign of maturity and strength.

If you feel that you have a desire and are committed to making changes in your life in order to overcome your current problems and achieve more long-term satisfaction, psychological wellbeing and personal fulfilment, then you are ready to seek therapy. We are here to help you work through a wide range of therapy issues that might be troubling you.

Will Information About Me Be Safe & Secure?

It is quite normal to be hesitant when it comes to sharing private and intimate information about yourself with a stranger. You may fear that you will receive judgment from your therapist, or that your therapist will share your details with others.

HQ Therapy Rooms takes your privacy and confidentiality very seriously. Our therapists are required to keep everything said in therapy sessions between you, just like your doctor is required to keep your records private.

For therapy to be effective, there must be unconditional trust built between you and your therapist, and this relies on a shared understanding of confidentiality. It applies to the outside world as well: it is standard practice for therapists not to acknowledge their clients if they run into them outside of the therapy rooms in order to help protect their client’s confidentiality. Read our full privacy policy for more information.

Can I Contact You For Advice About Getting Therapy?

Talking about your thoughts and feelings with a supportive therapist can often make you feel better and help you face your problems. It feels good to be listened to and to know that someone cares about you and wants to help. It is important that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and can build a trusting relationship to help you make positive changes in your life.

But how do you know what type of therapy is right for you? Taking the first steps in finding the right therapist can be the biggest hurdle for newcomers, so we have made it easy. Simply get in touch with us using the low-cost help and advice form and one of our fully qualified therapists can work with you to make sure you get the right advice you need in order to receive the correct low-cost therapy and counselling services you require.

Our practitioners deal with a wide range of therapy issues using different types of therapy modalities tailored to the types of clients we work with. We also cater for people who are beset with financial difficulties, offering them services ranging from low-cost therapy and reduced-rate therapy to working with seasoned, qualified and accredited talking therapists.
