About Zoe
Zoe Cliffe is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety and relationship strain. She also supports clients with self-esteem, coping with life changes, ADHD-related challenges, grief, parenting concerns and workplace issues. Zoe works to make each session feel simple and approachable for someone who may be anxious about starting therapy.
She uses a person-centred, client-focused way of working. The client leads the conversation and Zoe listens without judgement. This lets people talk through what matters most to them at their own pace.
Background and approach
Zoe often clarifies what someone is feeling and helps them make sense of their reactions. She introduces straightforward tools when they are useful, such as grounding exercises, breathwork, thought defusion and visualisation techniques. These are practical skills to use between sessions.
Her sessions aim to increase self-awareness and resilience. Many people gain clearer perspective, more confidence and a kinder relation to themselves over time. Zoe frames therapy as a collaborative process rather than giving prescriptive solutions.
Zoe holds BACP, which recognises professional membership with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has six years of experience working with adults in the United Kingdom. Sessions are available in English and are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
Person-centred approaches and online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects feelings and follows the client’s lead. This approach helps with anxiety, stress, self-esteem and relationship concerns by creating space to understand what matters most to the person.Zoe also blends practical coping exercises into sessions when helpful. Simple grounding techniques, breathwork, thought defusion and guided visualisation can be suggested to manage moments of intense anxiety or overwhelm. These tools are chosen collaboratively and practiced between meetings to build confidence.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Zoe works together with clients to decide what feels most helpful, adjusting pace, techniques and focus as needs and goals change. That collaborative planning helps people feel involved and respected in their own care.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls give face-to-face connection, phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera, live chat allows shorter check-ins and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping sessions consistent and focused.
