About Zoe
Zoe Hewlett is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She works with adults who are feeling stuck, dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, or facing life changes such as career shifts, relationship endings or questions about life purpose.
Zoe uses a mix of Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Existential Therapy. In sessions she helps people talk through immediate concerns, learn practical coping skills and test small changes that can make daily life easier. She also supports people with eating and intimacy-related issues, grief, trauma and abuse, and ADHD-related challenges.
Her background includes working across different settings and cultures, and she has supported people experiencing complex situations including homelessness. Zoe describes her work as focused on building resilience and practical problem solving. This often involves creating action plans and working one to one to strengthen coping strategies.
Sessions tend to focus on clear steps and short-term tools alongside deeper reflection on values and meaning when that is useful. She addresses issues such as communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or abandonment. Zoe also supports people navigating blended family issues and the stresses of midlife.
She generally works evenings and weekends, with occasional daytime sessions by request. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping the client find their own answers. It supports people who need space to reflect and to be heard without pressure. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful habits. Existential Therapy encourages discussion about meaning, values and choices, which can be useful when someone is questioning life purpose or facing major life changes.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try and when to adapt them. This is a collaborative process that can change as needs and priorities evolve.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and other commitments. They can allow shorter check-ins, evening or weekend appointments, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals offering online sessions often use these practical benefits to help sessions fit into everyday life.
