You don’t have to work it all out alone
There are times when life can feel overwhelming, uncertain or simply too much to carry by yourself.
You may be experiencing anxiety or low mood, grieving the loss of someone important, struggling with a relationship, facing a significant life change, or perhaps feeling disconnected from yourself without quite knowing why.
Whatever has brought you here, counselling offers you the opportunity to pause, talk openly and explore what is happening beneath the surface.
I provide a calm, compassionate and confidential space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace, without judgement or pressure.
Together, we can begin to understand what you are experiencing and gently explore a way forward that feels right for you.
Face-to-Face Counselling
Meet with me in a calm and comfortable therapy room in central Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.
Having a dedicated space away from everyday life can give you the time and privacy to focus entirely on yourself and what you need.
Online
Counselling
Online counselling offers the same supportive and confidential therapeutic relationship wherever you are in the UK.
It can be particularly helpful if travelling to Cheltenham isn't practical or you simply feel more comfortable speaking from your own space.
Free Introductory
Call
Start with a relaxed, free 15-minute phone or video call before deciding whether counselling feels right.
We can discuss what has brought you here, answer your questions and see whether you feel comfortable taking the next step together.
Listening... is the most potent force
for change that I know.

ABOUT ME
Hello, I’m Zoe
I’m a qualified counsellor and registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.
My approach is primarily person-centred and integrative, which means I see you as an individual rather than trying to fit your experiences into a predetermined method or formula.
I believe that you are the expert in your own life.
My role isn't to tell you what to do, but to walk alongside you with warmth, empathy, curiosity and honesty, helping you explore what you are experiencing and discover your own understanding and way forward.
Alongside counselling, I have a background in the arts and spent many years working within digital media in London. Creativity remains an important part of my life, and where appropriate I can also incorporate creative approaches and art materials into our work together.
Above all, I aim to offer a genuine human relationship where you can feel heard, accepted and able to be yourself.
A calm, private space in central Cheltenham
Face-to-face counselling sessions take place in a comfortable and welcoming therapy room in central Cheltenham.
It is a confidential space where you can step away from the pressures of everyday life and give yourself the time to explore what is really going on for you.
My counselling room is conveniently located close to public transport and parking.
If meeting in person isn't practical, I also offer online counselling sessions throughout the UK.

What happens next?
