Trauma-informed counselling and therapeutic practice
Supporting life's challenges with compassion, curiosity and connection.
Supporting life's challenges with compassion, curiosity and connection.
Welcome
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, we can feel uncertain or stuck. Seeking support is a deeply personal step, and finding someone you feel comfortable with matters.
My name is Eva-Maria Maywald and I am currently growing this website while I complete my counselling training.
Welcoming private counselling clients from 2028.
Over the coming months, I will be sharing reflections and resources on trauma-informed practice, counselling and emotional wellbeing as Matter & Heart develops.
About my work
Having qualified as a NARM therapist, I opted to further my training by completing a Level 4 Diploma in Counselling. I am dedicated to practising within a recognised professional and ethical framework, in preparation for BACP membership.
My work is informed by person-centred experiential counselling and NARM. I take a trauma-informed, relational approach, supporting people to explore their experiences at a pace that feels manageable and respectful.
Matter & Heart Updates
Matter & Heart is growing alongside my counselling training. If you would like to receive occasional reflections and updates as the practice develops, please join the mailing list. I'll write only when there's something meaningful to share, including new reflections, journal posts and, in time, the opening of my counselling practice.
