About Aaron

Aaron Marjolin is a counsellor with six years' experience working in and around Canterbury. He helps people who are facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, parenting pressures and motivation struggles. He aims to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion, and tailors his work to each person's needs.

Clients can expect straightforward conversations that focus on practical steps and emotional understanding. Aaron draws on attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas to help people notice patterns in relationships and improve intimacy. He also uses client-centred and existential perspectives to follow what matters most to the client and explore meaning and choice.

Sessions move at the client's pace and focus on small, manageable changes. Aaron often works on communication, coping strategies and rebuilding confidence after setbacks. He also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and addiction-related issues when these affect daily life.

Aaron has a broad range of focus areas including body image, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, neurodiversity such as autism and Asperger syndrome, ADHD, and caregiver stress. He also addresses relationship and intimacy-related issues alongside career and life-change challenges.

He is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP, which is recorded as his credential. Sessions are conducted in English and he is able to work with international clients. To begin, readers are asked to use the platform Start Therapy flow to match and schedule.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Aaron draws on attachment-based ideas that look at how early and close relationships shape current patterns. This approach can help people understand why they react a certain way in relationships and build different ways of connecting. He also uses emotionally-focused therapy ideas to help people name and process strong feelings, which can relieve tension in relationships and improve intimacy.

He combines these with a client-centred attitude that places the person's priorities at the centre of the work. Finding the right approach is part of the process and he will work together with each person to agree what fits their needs, goals and preferences rather than following a fixed formula.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel because they cut out commute time and allow a session from wherever a person is able to attend. They can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, or audio-only meetings when video feels like too much. Registered or accredited professionals generally adapt tools and exercises for remote work so that emotional and relational issues can be addressed effectively by distance.
