Zoe Hewlett

Zoe Hewlett is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of counselling experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, issues around identity and LGBT concerns, and questions about life purpose. Zoe also supports those facing trauma, grief, eating and intimacy-related problems, and people coping with major life changes including career shifts and midlife crises.

Zoe uses clear, practical conversations to help people manage day-to-day pressures. She draws on client-centred work to listen and prioritise what matters to the individual. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and adapt patterns that get in the way. Existential ideas come into play when people want to make sense of big life questions or values.

She has experience across a range of settings, including work with people in emergency housing. That background informs how she plans support and practical action steps for complex situations. Sessions often include actionable strategies alongside reflective discussion.

Zoe tends to offer evening and weekend appointments, with occasional daytime sessions on request. Her service operates through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary by location.

How Zoe’s approaches work in online sessions

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and prioritising what matters to the individual. In practice this means sessions begin by asking what is most pressing, and the therapist follows the person’s pace while clarifying goals and immediate needs.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Online work with CBT often uses practical exercises, simple worksheets and agreed behavioural experiments to test out new ways of coping with anxiety, low mood or unhelpful habits.

Existential therapy brings conversations about meaning, values and life direction into the room. It can help when people feel adrift after a major change, when career choices or life purpose are under question.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what feels most helpful, try short-term tasks, and adapt the focus over a few sessions based on the person’s goals and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work into busy weeks, allow quieter check-ins outside standard hours, and reduce travel time. They also let practical tools and worksheets be shared between sessions so people can work on goals in everyday life.
