About Mary
Mary Honeyball is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 20 years of practice. She works with adults on common and persistent difficulties such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression, and she lists anger among her concerns. Her approach is straightforward and problem-focused, helping people find clearer ways to respond when emotions run high.
She often helps clients who are dealing with relationship strain, grief, parenting pressures and career stress. Mary also supports people struggling with sleep, eating concerns, trauma and compassion fatigue. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is another area she pays attention to during assessments.
Mary uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy to guide sessions. That means she works with thoughts and feelings directly, looks at how past relational patterns influence the present, and keeps the conversation rooted in what matters to the client. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as gaining clearer personal insight.
Over two decades Mary has developed a steady, consistent way of working. She aims for short, clear conversations about what is getting in the way and what might help now. She asks practical questions about daily routines, relationships and reactions to stress.
People who contact her are invited to a straightforward start: complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and recurring anger where getting stuck in reactions feels unhelpful.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect how someone responds to conflict and closeness. This approach can help with relationship strain, intimacy-related issues and reactions that repeat over time.
Client-Centred Therapy keeps the focus on the person's own experience and priorities. It involves listening, reflecting and helping people find their own solutions rather than imposing steps from the therapist.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Mary will discuss which methods seem most likely to help, and she will adapt the focus as goals and needs become clearer. This is a collaborative process that emphasises practical change as well as understanding.
The practical benefits of online therapy are that it can fit into a busy week and reduce travel time. If you want to know the specific session formats offered, confirm the current options before booking. Online work can allow quicker check-ins, easier use of short sessions around work breaks, and sessions without needing to be on camera if that suits you better.
