Mirriam Ekei Buo, BACP

Mirriam Ekei Buo offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. She frames the client as the expert in their own story and helps them use their strengths to move forward. Her approach is straightforward and people-focused, aimed at making change feel manageable.

She works from the United Kingdom and brings five years of experience across different mental health settings. Her background includes work in NHS services, higher education and employee assistance programmes. That variety means she has seen many common difficulties and practical ways to help.

In sessions she blends methods that focus on relationships, personal experience and the client’s own pace. The work often looks at patterns that cause pain, how early relationships shape feelings, and what helps someone feel steadier day to day. Conversations are client-led and tailored to each person’s needs.

Mirriam supports people with concerns such as grief and loss, LGBT matters, family conflict, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and sleeping struggles. She also focuses on problems like low self-esteem, career pressure, compassion fatigue and coping with life changes. Additional areas include attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems and blended family challenges.

If someone wants to start, Mirriam asks them to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to her availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How Mirriam’s approaches translate to online work

Mirriam uses attachment-based, client-centred and psychodynamic ideas in her practice. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps when people struggle with trust, intimacy or abandonment issues. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead so sessions match what matters most to the person. Psychodynamic work pays attention to recurring patterns and unconscious feelings that can show up in relationships and self-esteem.

Choosing the right approach is part of the journey and will be a collaborative decision. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and adapt the way they work as understanding grows. This helps ensure the method fits the issue and the person’s comfort with the process.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel, and it can reduce the time spent on journeys. Some people prefer talking without video for a shorter check-in, while others favour face-to-face style conversation when they want deeper interaction. Registered or accredited professionals can often adjust pacing, length and focus to suit everyday life and commitments.
