About Issaka
Issaka Zango is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. He supports those weighing up difficult decisions, coping with grief, navigating relationship and intimacy concerns, and handling addiction or career strain. He aims to create a calm space where clients can speak honestly about what feels overwhelming.
Issaka offers gentle, non-judgemental support and works alongside clients rather than telling them what to do. He uses conversation to build insight, confidence and practical ways to cope.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to the client and on small steps that feel doable. He draws on several therapeutic ideas, including Client-Centred Therapy, Jungian approaches and Motivational Interviewing. These inform how he listens, helps people explore meaning, and encourages change without pressure.
He adapts the work to each person’s needs instead of using a single fixed method. With four years of experience and BACP registration, Issaka has supported people through trauma, family and origin issues, ADHD, bipolar concerns and problems with sleep, anger or self-esteem. He also works with people dealing with isolation, guilt, forgiveness and blended family challenges.
Sessions can use a mix of talking and practical exercises to help manage anxious thoughts, build resilience and clarify life purpose. The aim is steady progress at a pace a person can manage, with emphasis on understanding and real-world tools.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping people find their own solutions through supportive conversation. It can be helpful for anxiety, low mood and building self-esteem because it centres on the person's experience.Jungian Therapy explores personal meaning, recurring life patterns and symbols that turn up in dreams or daily life. It can assist people who want to understand deeper themes behind their feelings and behaviour.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way of talking that reduces resistance to change and strengthens motivation. It works well when someone wants to tackle addictions, make lifestyle adjustments or move through a difficult decision.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to the client's goals and preferences and suggest a way forward together. If one method does not fit, they will adapt the plan collaboratively so progress can continue.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
