About Cleo
Cleo Irish Zorrilla is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and relationship or family concerns. Cleo also supports people facing grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting stress, anger, career uncertainty and ADHD related struggles.
Her work combines psychodynamic ideas with solution-focused methods. That means she looks at recurring patterns from the past that affect present feelings and relationships, while also helping clients set small practical goals they can try between sessions. Sessions are aimed at making sense of difficult feelings and testing straightforward steps to reduce distress.
Cleo often addresses issues linked to abandonment and attachment, body image, communication problems and family difficulties. She also speaks with people dealing with guilt, shame, isolation, life purpose questions and panic symptoms. Conversations tend to be direct and practical, focusing on what is happening now and what might help next.
She accepts people from the UK and international clients and works in English. Fees vary by location and the service operates through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. Before booking, clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session.
People choosing Cleo can expect a clear, goal-minded approach that balances understanding past influences with concrete steps forward. Her four years of practice have been spent helping adults manage the common pressures of early and mid-adulthood.
Psychodynamic and solution-focused work online
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat across relationships and moods. It helps clients understand how past experiences influence current feelings and reactions, useful for recurring anxiety, attachment issues and difficult relationship dynamics. Solution-Focused Therapy is goal-oriented and practical. It concentrates on small, achievable steps and what people can try between sessions to reduce stress or move toward a clearer goal.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods based on your needs, goals and preferences. That means sessions can shift between exploring history and testing short-term experiments until a helpful balance is found.
The biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around study, work or travel, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins when life feels hectic. Phone or video sessions can suit different needs - phone calls use less bandwidth and can feel quicker, while video allows face-to-face interaction. Registered or accredited professionals can work this way to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain and practical life changes without rearranging large parts of daily life.
