About Me

Hello, I’m Dr Mariam Majid, a warm and experienced Clinical Psychologist offering private therapy in Newcastle upon Tyne and online. I have over 20 years of experience supporting individuals within the NHS, and I now offer personalised, evidence-based therapy to adults seeking support with emotional and psychological difficulties.

I’m fully accredited in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and EMDR Therapy, and I work with a wide range of concerns—from anxiety and depression to trauma, grief, and more complex emotional distress.

My Approach to Therapy

I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel daunting. My approach is gentle, collaborative and rooted in empathy. I take time to really understand what’s going on for you—both now and in your past—and together, we explore ways to reduce your distress and bring about meaningful change.

I work with clients who may be experiencing:

• Depression or low self-worth

• Generalised Anxiety, health anxiety, or panic attacks

• Social anxiety, OCD, and phobias

• PTSD and complex trauma

• Grief, loss, or significant life changes

• Long-term emotional distress or burnout

Evidence-Based Therapy, Tailored to You

I believe that no two people are the same, and so therapy should never be one-size-fits-all. I draw from a range of evidence-based psychological approaches to create a therapy plan that is truly centred on your unique needs, goals and preferences.

I am trained and experienced in:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

• EMDR Therapy for trauma and painful memories

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

• Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

• Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)

• Reprocessing Therapy for complex emotional patterns

All of my work follows the most up-to-date NICE Guidelines, and I am committed to delivering therapy that is safe, effective, and ethically grounded.

In-Person and Online Therapy in Newcastle

I offer therapy for adults in Newcastle upon Tyne, with sessions available both in person and online, depending on your location and preference. Whether you’re looking for short-term support or a deeper exploration of long-standing difficulties, we can find a way of working that suits you.

What You Can Expect from Me

My clients often describe me as calm, kind and professional. I create a safe and welcoming space where you can speak openly—without fear of judgement—and begin to make sense of your experience. My aim is to help you alleviate emotional distress, build new ways of coping, and feel more confident and connected in your day-to-day life.

Let’s Take the First Step Together

If you’re feeling unsure or overwhelmed, you’re not alone. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can talk about what you’re going through and explore whether therapy might be helpful for you.

You’re very welcome to get in touch—whether you’re referring yourself or have been encouraged by a GP, friend or family member. I’d be honoured to walk alongside you on your journey.

You don’t have to face this on your own.
