About Azora

Azora Guimarães is a counsellor who focuses on anxiety and related stresses. She brings a calm, practical style to sessions and helps people who feel overwhelmed by worry, trauma, or life change. Her work aims to make everyday breathing room where people can think clearly and take small steps forward.

Azora draws on three years of experience supporting people after abuse, assault and neglect. She helps clients cope with grief, relationship problems, eating and body-image concerns, and the practical strain of parenting or court matters.

Background and approach

She also supports people navigating a recent diagnosis such as ADHD or autism and those dealing with workplace racism or microaggressions. Sessions tend to be collaborative and grounded. Azora uses client-centred listening to hear what matters most, attachment ideas to look at relational patterns, and mindfulness skills to ease intense feelings.

Together with the person in therapy she builds simple routines and coping strategies to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. She has used coaching, personal training and neuro-linguistic programming tools alongside counselling to help people reshape their relationship with food and body image. Azora offers a 12-week reflective booklet that complements one-to-one work for clients who want practical exercises and clear structure.

Azora also has volunteer experience supporting people affected by domestic abuse and sexual violence. That background informs how she approaches safety, pacing and practical problem solving when difficult events are part of the story.

How Azora’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions use this approach to help people spot recurring relationship habits and try new ways of connecting with others. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person’s own goals; in remote sessions this means Azora follows the person’s lead and helps them find their own next step. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and anchor the body when anxiety spikes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Azora will discuss different methods and adapt them to what you want to achieve. This is a collaborative process - goals, pace and techniques are decided together so the plan fits your needs and day-to-day life.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial expressions and use real-time exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier while multitasking or during a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support or when a written approach feels more comfortable. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and travel while keeping the focus on steady progress.
