Selamawit Zere

Selamawit Zere is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and anger. She encourages clients to recognise their own strengths and to take small, practical steps toward feeling steadier. Her warm, straightforward style aims to make first meetings less daunting for someone seeking change.

She sees each person as the expert on their life and works alongside them to untangle what feels overwhelming. Conversations focus on clear goals and everyday coping strategies rather than jargon. Selamawit explains ideas in plain language and uses simple tools clients can try between sessions.

Her background includes working in the United Kingdom and supporting people through a range of emotional struggles. With three years of experience she draws on that practical practice to offer steady, thoughtful support. Her BACP credential is included in her professional details.

Sessions often cover topics such as attachment issues, body image, communication problems, guilt and shame, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, sexuality and women's issues. Isolation and loneliness are also areas she addresses when they are part of a person's difficulties.

She speaks English, Amharic and Tigrinya, which can help people use the language they find most comfortable. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to Selamawit's schedule and the site's booking process.

Approach-focused online therapy with practical tools

Many of Selamawit's explanations describe working with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people manage day-to-day distress. One useful approach involves breaking problems into manageable steps and practising new coping skills between sessions to reduce anxiety and panic attacks. Another common focus is exploring attachment patterns and communication habits to improve relationships and reduce loneliness and isolation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. This means trying ideas together, checking what helps, and changing the focus if something does not feel useful.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow people to meet from locations that suit their routine. It can also let someone choose shorter check-ins when they need a quick review, or longer sessions for deeper work, depending on what the therapist and client agree will help most.
