Hi and welcome.
I am a qualified therapist trained both in psychodynamic counselling and CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy). My oractice is informed by Existentialism and Systemic thinking.

If you are struggling in life and going through a tough time, suffering from relationship issues, low mood, depression, anxiety, life transitions, work stress/burnout, bereavement, pet-loss, suffering from the pain of an addicted loved one, or you are not sure what yet, I am here to listen and help.

I work in-person and online (via Zoom and WhatsApp). I work online only with people living and resident in UK.

I am queer fluid, an LGBTIQA+ ally, and I am sex-positive. I am neurodivergent-affirmative and pro-self-advocacy (knowing yourself, knowing your needs, and knowing how to get what you need). I am a Gender, Sexual and Relationship Diversity (GSRD)-affirmative individual. I am anti-racist. I value diversity and I am against discrimination in all its forms. However, I know I must do my best to learn and be vigilant and aware of my blind spots.

For more information about me and how we can work together, you can check https://vanessazopptherapy.com or contact me.
