About Magdelena

Magdelena "Maggie" Rasheva-Malul welcomes people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or uncertain in midlife and beyond. She supports those facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, grief and major life changes. Maggie is based in the United Kingdom and works from a human-centred perspective that values curiosity and compassion. She holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often abbreviated as BACP.

Maggie trained with a degree in integrative counselling, and she brings five years of professional experience to her practice. She volunteers with charities because she believes therapy should be accessible, and she enjoys ongoing learning in neuroscience, philosophy and behavioural science. This background informs a reflective, down-to-earth approach.

In sessions she helps people notice patterns, make small changes and try new ways of coping. Conversations are gentle but purposeful, with a focus on what matters to the client. She avoids jargon and aims to make ideas practical and easy to use between sessions.

Clients can expect a collaborative process where self-knowledge and practical skills grow together. Maggie emphasises courage and vulnerability as steps toward change, while acknowledging that progress is often gradual. She describes her role as planting small seeds for transformation rather than promising dramatic fixes.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including parenting challenges, career transitions, trauma and attachment issues, ADHD, compassion fatigue and sleep problems. People who value a thoughtful, person-centred style often find her way of working approachable and useful.

How her approaches shape online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current patterns. It helps people understand connection, trust and intimacy struggles and how these show up in adult life. Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the work; the counsellor listens deeply and follows the client's pace to help them find their own answers.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Maggie works with clients to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative conversation that may change over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Confirm the exact session options available before booking, as formats are not listed here. Registered or accredited professionals often offer flexible timings and remote appointments to help people continue therapy around work, family and other commitments.
