About Cleo

Cleo Irish Zorrilla helps people work through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and related concerns. She also supports people dealing with addictions, relationship and family difficulties, grief, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, anger, career questions, life changes and ADHD. Cleo is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years' experience in counselling.

Cleo uses Psychodynamic Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in her work. She aims to understand patterns that repeat in a person’s life and to identify practical steps that can ease day-to-day problems. Sessions are conversational and structured around the immediate concerns a client brings.

People who see Cleo may talk about early relationships, attachment and feelings of abandonment. She also addresses issues such as body image, eating and food-related problems, domestic violence, guilt and shame, isolation and midlife challenges. She discusses how these themes affect mood, panic, phobias and sleep.

In practice Cleo combines exploring underlying patterns with clear, short-term goals. That might mean looking at where a problem began, then agreeing on small behavioural changes to try between sessions. Her approach balances reflection with practical steps to reduce distress.

Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions are arranged through a cancellable subscription model. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Psychodynamic and Solution-Focused work online

Psychodynamic Therapy looks at recurring patterns from past relationships and how they affect present feelings and behaviour. It helps when someone wants to understand why they react in certain ways and how past experiences shape current relationships.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and short-term goals. It is useful for people who want clear, manageable changes and measurable progress between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Cleo will discuss needs, goals and preferences with clients and decide together which approach, or mix of approaches, fits best. This is a collaborative process and can be reviewed as therapy progresses.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to work with a registered BACP member from different locations without needing to change their day-to-day routine.
