Selamawit Zere

Selamawit Zere is a BACP-registered counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, and anger. She welcomes conversations about womens issues and pays attention to how those concerns affect daily life. Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at making tough conversations easier to manage.

She regards each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. In sessions she listens, asks practical questions, and helps clients find ways to cope that fit their routine. The work may include talking through painful memories, learning breathing and grounding techniques, or practising clearer ways to say what you need.

Selamawit has three years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP, which indicates her registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and uses that framework to guide ethical practice. She also speaks English, Amharic and Tigrinya, which can help when cultural context matters.

People often come to her for help with attachment worries, body image concerns, communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and panic attacks. She supports those recovering from post-traumatic stress and those wanting to better understand their sexuality.

To begin, clients follow a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Selamawit aims to work collaboratively so goals are clear and progress feels manageable.

Approaches that guide online work and how they help

Selamawit uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her sessions. One common method focuses on stabilising symptoms through practical coping skills such as breathing, grounding and routines; this helps with panic attacks, intense anxiety and overwhelming stress. Another strand concentrates on processing difficult experiences by talking them through at a steady pace and building safer ways of relating to memories and emotions; this can support recovery from trauma and abuse and reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Selamawit works together with each person to decide which techniques fit best. She listens to your goals and life circumstances and adjusts the plan as you go, so the work feels practical and manageable.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when needed. It can also let people choose quieter or lower-bandwidth ways to connect, and make it simpler to keep therapy going across different locations. Registered or accredited professionals can work with you to shape sessions that suit your day-to-day life.
