Zoe Smith
About me
Hi, I'm Zoe, a qualified counsellor based in the UK, and a current member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). My journey in counselling has led me to work with individuals facing a range of challenges, including trauma, domestic abuse, addiction, and many of the common struggles life presents.
I believe that everyone develops unique ways of coping with the difficulties they encounter. My goal is to provide a supportive and empathetic space where you can explore these coping mechanisms and work towards rediscovering your true self. I understand how much courage it takes to seek help, and I would consider it a privilege to walk beside you on your journey to healing and self-discovery.
I’m here to listen, support, and guide you, as you take the brave steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Zoe has been an incredibly grounding and supportive therapist. She listens with genuine care and offers gentle, insightful guidance that always helps me reflect and move forward.
