About Zahava

Zahava Smith is a counsellor with six years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain and trauma. She works with clients on parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, career concerns and other life changes. Zahava offers a respectful, calm approach that lets each person set the pace of sessions.

In sessions she uses a client-centred style. That means conversations focus on your priorities and feelings. The therapist listens carefully and reflects back what she hears.

Background and approach

Clients steer the topics while Zahava helps them make sense of thoughts and emotions. People often come for help after loss, abuse, or when life feels overwhelming. Zahava helps with anger, codependency and family problems, and supports those processing infidelity, divorce or separation.

She also works on body image, caregiver stress, isolation and finding life purpose. Her approach is straightforward and practical. Sessions include talking things through, identifying patterns, and trying small changes to daily routines.

Zahava aims to build confidence so people can cope better between appointments. She practices in the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Conversations are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging.

The focus is to create a steady, personalised pace that matches each person's needs.

Ways of working Zahava names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Client-centred care delivered online

Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the conversation. The counsellor listens deeply, reflects what she hears and helps the person explore feelings at their own speed. This approach is often helpful for people coping with trauma, grief, relationship problems and self-esteem issues.

Zahava focuses on following each client's lead and shaping sessions around individual goals. She will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit you best and will adjust the way you meet as you progress. That means the plan can change if your needs, priorities or preferences shift over time.

Online work is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact helps. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, shorter sessions or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments, and help people access support from different locations.
