About me

I'm an accredited senior coach working online with adults who are struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, relationship problems, limiting beliefs, past trauma and painful emotions.

Imagine how you could feel if you could break free from the things that are causing your pain...

Hi. I'm Chris and I am a holistic coach and therapist. I know that dealing with pain, lack of confidence, depression, anger, burnout, overwhelm, overthinking, substance misuse, weight problems and phobias can cause you to feel stuck.

​The thoughts that are telling you that you're not good enough, that you should be doing more, that you shouldn't be feeling like this, that someone else is better than you are.

I know that exploring your emotions is the key to changing your negative thoughts because I've done it.

I can help you to control your anxiety, look at difficult relationships from a different perspective and begin to recover from the things in your past that have caused your trauma because it's this that will help you to let go of the self doubt, lack of confidence and unhelpful behaviours that are controlling your life.

​Can you imagine how your life could be if  YOU worked with me on the things that are hurting YOU and holding YOU back?

​The first thing we'll do, is have a call because I like to make sure that we feel comfortable with each other and that I can support you in the way you want. 

​Together we'll tackle how YOU feel about your past and work on managing your emotions because that's how YOU can take control of your thoughts and feelings. 

​We'll work on changing how YOU feel about yourself because that's how YOU can dial down the negative voice in your head. 

​We'll reframe your relationships in your mind, so that they can't hurt YOU anymore and we'll work through and heal your trauma, because YOU can't move on or feel good about yourself until you do. We'll work on changing how YOU see yourself, because that's how YOU can be confident in who YOU are and what you're capable of. ​

I specialise in: Anxiety, Difficult Relationships and Trauma because I know how dealing with the things they bring up can release you from the Pain, Lack of confidence, Depression, Anger, Burnout, Overwhelm, Overthinking, Substance Misuse, Weight Problems and Phobias that they can cause. 

  • Coaching and Counselling
  • Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) 
  • Clinical Hypnotherapy
  • Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR)
  • Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

I can help you to heal at every level.

I am accredited by EMCC at Senior Practitioner level and I am a member of the Complementary Medical Association.

By the end of our time together, you'll have everything you need to manage the feelings that have been controlling your life.

My coaching methods are backed by years of experience and proven results. 

Here is what one client said about working with me.

"What sets Chris apart from others is her empathetic approach and genuine commitment to my well-being. She didn't just offer generic advice; instead, she tailored her guidance to suit my individual needs and circumstances. This personalised touch made the therapy sessions incredibly impactful." E. London"

In between session support is included.

My coaching style is warm and empowering and takes place in the safe space that I create for you.

 I know how hard it can be to feel like  you do  because I've struggled with anxiety and negative thoughts. I've had difficult relationships and I've experienced trauma.

​I know how that leads to comparing yourself to others and the impact that has on confidence and self esteem because I have experienced the stress and overwhelm of living like this.

I understand that you may be nervous about reaching out.

Coaching involves investing in yourself and that may be scary.
It's time to do what's right for you and I have a payment plan

You may not have told anyone how you're feeling or got the right support before. 
It’s ok. It’s time to let go of all the things that are weighing you down.

My clients choose me because I have more than twenty years experience of supporting people just like them through anxiety,  difficult relationships, complex emotions, recovering  from trauma, moving on from crime, working through the asylum system and improving wellbeing both at home and at work.

I can help you too.

Reviews

I just finished the 6 week course and it was absolutely brilliant. I feel so much more prepared for anything coming my way. Chris has given me a huge selection of emotional and psychological tools to deal with life, with all its ups and down. If you are feeling stuck, or struggling with anything at all I really can not recommend Chris enough. Thank you so much for everything Chris!

I would highly recommend Chris. She has challenged my 50 years of negative thinking, helped me see things from a different perspective and has made a huge difference in my life. I can move forward now and enjoy the peace in the here and now.I thank you Chris for your part in my journey...I will be forever grateful Blessed be x

I highly recommend Chris Maragkakis as a life coach.Having one-to-one coaching sessions with Chris is the best personal investment I've ever made.Each session was themed and even though it was emotionally hard work at times (as expected), I always left each session feeling better equipped with new skills. After our set of coaching sessions I feel more confident in life, now aware of my life stressors and a new ability to recognise how I respond to them. I truly embrace my future too.Chris is an enthusiastic, motivated individual with a warm, friendly, approachable personality.I'm so pleased Chris has her podcast because it allows me to stay in touch with what she taught me, and allows me to benefit and gain even more of her knowledge and wisdom.By nature, Chris is conscientious, and I'm so very grateful to have her in my life.

I found Chris at a time when I felt very stuck. I signed up for 1: 1 coaching sessions. Chris helped me bring things into the light, challenged my limiting beliefs and broadened my outlook on life. I learnt so many things with Chris. I continue on my journey with those little gems of wisdom. Thank you so much
