Selamawit Zere, BACP

Selamawit uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change and safety. One common approach she draws on helps people understand how past experiences shape current reactions and relationships, and then practices new ways of responding to reduce distress. This is useful for attachment issues, post-traumatic stress and difficulties with trust.

Another approach she uses focuses on managing intense feelings like panic, anxiety and anger by teaching simple skills for grounding, breathing and pacing thoughts. These skills aim to reduce the immediate overwhelm so people can make clearer choices in difficult moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and agree a plan together. That collaborative process lets the method change if it doesn’t fit or if needs evolve over time.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can save bandwidth and feel more personal without a camera, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging works well for people who prefer writing or need flexible timing. These options provide practical flexibility for different schedules and circumstances.
