My name is Maria de Ridder. I work as a psychotherapist in private practice in South Manchester in Chorlton and Didsbury.

The principle modality I use is called Transactional Analysis; a type of psychotherapy which looks at how the past affects the present and looks at any unhelpful patterns we may developed. I also offer mindfulness based and relational approaches where applicable. My key areas of interest are relationship difficulties and trauma informed therapy.
It is a great privilege to do this work, and as such I aim to offer a safe space which honours the uniqueness of each client. If you are feeling stuck in life and believe talking therapy could help, please do not hesitate to get in touch. I offer flexibility with my sessions according to lifestyles; I can meet with you either face to face or online.
