Rochelle Marashi is an integrative psychotherapist based in London, offering online therapy. She has broad clinical experience across the NHS, addiction services, women's centres, and low-cost therapy settings. She holds a Master's degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy from the University of Roehampton and is a BACP registered member (number 416139).

My Background I grew up in Germany and Spain, studied in Paris, and worked in Bangkok. Before training as a therapist, I had a corporate background working in learning and development and human resources. I have also worked in education and the not-for-profit sector. This varied background gives me a broad perspective on the challenges people face - whether in relationships, at work, across cultures, or during periods of significant change. Alongside my clinical work, I write for therapy publications and raise awareness of coercive control, legal abuse, and stalking. My articles have been published in Therapy Today, the Counselling Directory, Make Yourself Heard Journal, and Psychreg. When I am not working, I enjoy quality time with my husband, daughter, and extended family.

My Approach I practise as an integrative psychotherapist, which means I draw on several well-established therapeutic traditions and tailor my approach to each client's needs. The theories that inform my work include: - Person-centred therapy - creating a safe, non-judgemental space where you feel genuinely heard
  • Psychodynamic therapy - exploring how past experiences shape present feelings and behaviour
  • Transactional analysis - understanding communication patterns and relationship dynamics The therapeutic relationship is always at the heart of our work together. I believe that when you feel truly accepted and understood, you are better able to explore difficult feelings and find your own way forward. I practise exclusively online.

Frequently asked questions

What is integrative psychotherapy?

Integrative psychotherapy draws on multiple theoretical approaches - including person-centred, psychodynamic, and transactional analysis - and adapts them to each client's needs. Rather than following one fixed model, I use the tools and frameworks that are most helpful for what you are working through, with the therapeutic relationship always at the centre.
