About Ingrid-Maria

Ingrid-Maria Nordgren helps people facing eating and food-related issues alongside stress, anxiety, depression and relationship challenges. She works with individuals who want to understand themselves better and change patterns that hold them back. Conversations aim to map feelings, body responses and life events so new choices can become possible.

She focuses on the link between body and mind and pays attention to breath, posture and non-verbal signals. That practical focus supports work on emotions, self-worth, body image and intimacy-related concerns. Sessions are conversational and grounded, with space for quiet reflection and clearer emotional naming.

Her approach is relational and integrative. Ingrid-Maria sits alongside people as a companion in the therapeutic process, offering both support and challenge when needed. She encourages curiosity about old patterns so people can try different ways of thinking and behaving.

In practice she brings body-awareness into talking therapy. This helps when emotional numbness, trauma or strong physical reactions get in the way of change. The work aims to help people feel more at home in their bodies and more able to act from choice rather than habit.

She has 13 years of counselling experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are offered in English and Swedish for people based in the United Kingdom.

Working with body-aware and integrative approaches online

Ingrid-Maria uses integrative, relational and body-aware ways of working that blend talking with attention to bodily signals. An integrative approach draws on different techniques to match what a person needs, while keeping the relationship between counsellor and client central. Body-aware work involves noticing breath, posture and non-verbal cues to help people connect feelings with physical experience and support progress on issues like body image and eating-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss options with the client and adapt methods to their goals, pace and comfort. This means experimenting together to see what feels most helpful and adjusting as understanding grows.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help sustain continuity of care during life changes, letting people keep momentum while managing work, family and other commitments.
