Mariam Nakabugo

Mariam Nakabugo offers calm, straightforward support for adults facing relationship strain, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. She aims to help people who are juggling grief, work stress, addiction concerns, or major life changes. Mariam writes plainly and listens carefully so people feel heard and clearer about next steps.

Mariam uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on each person's strengths and choices. She also draws on solution-focused ideas to help set small, practical goals and track progress. Sessions are guided by the client’s priorities and move at a pace that feels manageable.

She has ten years of experience supporting adults through trauma, family conflict, intimacy issues and compassion fatigue. Mariam also works with people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, body image concerns and the complexities of blended families. She provides culturally sensitive support and can include Christian values in sessions when requested.

Mariam is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, which she lists as her credential. She is based in the United Kingdom and offers therapy in English. International clients are not accepted.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire and a booking step will be used to connect a person with sessions according to the therapist’s scheduling. The focus in early meetings is on safety, clear goals and small practical changes that help daily life.

How these approaches shape online therapy

Mariam combines person-centred work with solution-focused methods to help people make practical changes. Person-centred therapy means the therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears and follows the client’s lead. This approach helps when someone needs a non-judgemental space to sort feelings and decisions.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and clear goals. It is useful for issues like stress, relationship problems or feeling stuck, because it looks for what works now and builds on it. Together these approaches help balance emotional exploration with doable tasks.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work with the client to choose what fits their needs and preferences. That choice can change over time as goals evolve and progress is observed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also be helpful when quieter surroundings, less screen time or a more flexible schedule matters to the client.
