Meet Maria Konstantinelli - MA (Counselling & Psycotherapy)

​​Relationship Counselling

​

If you’ve found your way here, chances are something isn’t feeling right. Whatever you're facing, you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we can explore what’s going on and find a way forward that feels clearer, calmer, and more in line with the life you want.

​

I'm a qualified and experienced counsellor and relationship therapist, offering relationship counselling in Kent both online and in person, including Counselling West Malling, Kings Hill, Maidstone, Sevenoaks, and Tonbridge. I offer counselling for married couples those in civil partnerships or anyone who are in a relationship of any kind. I’ve been working in the field for over nine years, supporting individuals and couples from all backgrounds and walks of life. I offer counselling in both English and Greek.

​

As a couple’s therapist, I’m here to help you and your partner work through relationship challenges—whether you're feeling stuck in conflict, growing apart, or facing a crisis that’s shaken your connection. Many couples come to me feeling unheard, disconnected, or uncertain about the future. Together, we’ll work to rebuild trust, improve communication, and restore emotional closeness and intimacy.

​

You may be looking for the best couples therapy and wonder how to choose the best marriage counselling or the best marriage counsellor for you. I’ve worked with RELATE UK and bring warmth, empathy, and practical tools to help you move from frustration and distance toward a renewed sense of understanding, intimacy, and hope. Part of my training with Relate Marriage Counselling provided me with a great deal of experience, and I have a passion helping clients having relationship difficulties.

Psychosexual Therapy

​

I also offer psychosexual therapy in a warm, confidential, and deeply respectful space where you can speak openly about concerns that may feel sensitive or difficult to put into words. I am aware that talking about sexual difficulties can bring up feelings of embarrassment, shame, frustration, or even hopelessness.

​

I work with individuals and couples experiencing a wide range of sexual difficulties such as:

​

• Low or loss of sexual desire,

• Arousal issues

• Erectile difficulties,

• Premature or delayed ejaculation,

• Challenges reaching orgasm,

• Pain during sex,

• Vaginismus, and

• Genito-pelvic pain

​

I support clients who are struggling with performance anxiety, mismatched desire within a relationship, or the impact of sexual trauma.

 

Navigating questions around sexual identity, changes in sexuality, or shifts in intimacy following life events such as menopause, pregnancy, postnatal recovery, illness, disability, ageing, or the effects of medication, are also issues that can be explored in therapy.

​

Individual Counselling

​

I also work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, and the impact of past trauma including adverse childhood experiences or adverse childhood events. I understand how painful experiences can shape how we see ourselves and relate to others. I believe that even in the darkest moments, healing and change are possible.

​

I see each person as the expert of their own story. Sometimes, those strengths get buried under self-doubt or fear, but with the right support, they can be rediscovered. I offer a calm, compassionate space where you can explore what’s holding you back and take steps towards a more connected, fulfilling life, within yourself and in your relationships.

​

Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your relationship, I’m here to help. If you’re ready for change and want to feel more connected, confident, and clear, get in touch to book a free consultation.
