About Zoleikha
Dr. Zoleikha Gholizadeh is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 19 years of professional experience and the NCPS credential. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression and ADHD.
She communicates in English, Azerbaijani and Persian to reach a broader range of clients. The first meeting is usually about listening and understanding what matters most to each person. Her approach is straightforward and person-centred.
Background and approach
She aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgement. Meetings are paced to suit the individual, with practical steps discussed alongside emotional support. The goal is to help people build tools they can use between sessions.
Zoleikha draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood problems, panic, obsessive thoughts and trauma reactions. She also works with concerns such as fertility-related stress, cancer-related emotional strain, hoarding and isolation. Sessions attend to both immediate coping strategies and longer-term patterns that keep problems recurring.
People who prefer clear explanation and a steady, respectful tone often find her style helpful. She encourages collaboration - setting goals together and checking progress as therapy continues. Practical exercises and reflective conversation commonly appear in her work.
International clients may work with her using video, phone, live chat or text messaging. Starting involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that suits the client. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.

Online support
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before. Together they choose methods to try, review progress and adjust the plan as needed so the work fits the person's life.
Online sessions offer flexibility and access for people with different schedules and locations. Video calls let the therapist and client meet face to face when interaction matters. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can work well when being on camera is difficult. Live chat or text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflections and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work even when travel or time is limited.
