About Zoe
Zoe Hewlett is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with five years' experience. She works with common young adult concerns such as stress, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship strain and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, LGBT and gender dysphoria concerns, eating and body-image issues, and career or study transitions.
Zoe uses practical, conversational sessions aimed at building day-to-day coping skills. She draws on Client-Centred ideas to focus on what matters to each person. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to unpick unhelpful thoughts and try small, testable changes in thinking or behaviour.
Her approach is straightforward and goal-aware. Sessions involve setting clear, realistic steps and checking progress. She works one-to-one and often develops short action plans people can use between meetings.
Before moving into counselling Zoe worked across mentoring, life coaching and therapeutic support in several settings. That background influences a hands-on style and an emphasis on practical problem solving for immediate pressures like moving out, first jobs, study stress and relationship conflicts.
Sessions are arranged to fit around evenings and weekends, with occasional daytime slots by request. To begin, users are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session through the platform's scheduling system.
Approaches used and how online sessions work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on putting the person's concerns at the centre of the conversation. The therapist listens, reflects and helps people clarify what matters to them, which is useful for issues like identity, self-esteem and relationship doubts.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses simple experiments and practical tasks to test unhelpful thinking and try new behaviours, which can help with anxiety, low mood and study or work stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Zoe aims to decide collaboratively what helps most, based on a person's goals and what feels manageable. That may mean combining listening-led sessions with CBT-style tasks or plans to use between meetings.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered. Please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or study, reduce travel time and allow check-ins outside usual office hours. Some formats are shorter or quieter and better for brief updates, while others allow a fuller conversation when more time is needed.
