Maryheals

About

A psychologist you work with directly.

Maryheals is my personal practice in Uganda. I sit with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to understand themselves more clearly. The work is professional, confidential, and paced with you.

My approach

The methods I draw on

I focus on your whole experience rather than cutting it into disconnected parts. I build a plan from these methods, matched to what you are dealing with and what you want from therapy.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

See the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour — then practise newer responses.

Talk therapy

A confidential place to say it. You do not need the perfect words to begin.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Make room for difficult feelings, and still choose actions that belong to your life.

Trauma-informed work

We go at a pace the nervous system can hold. The past is named when it is useful — never for its own sake.

Working together

What we work toward

  • Feel more emotionally steady, and less ruled by the first reaction
  • Understand yourself with more clarity and less shame
  • Carry coping skills that hold up when you are under stress
  • Make decisions that match your values and goals
  • Heal what has been carried for too long
If you are not sure whether what you are going through counts as a reason for therapy, it probably does.
