About Cleo
Cleo Irish Zorrilla is a counsellor who combines insight-oriented work with practical goal-focused techniques. She draws on psychodynamic perspectives alongside solution-focused methods to help people who are feeling overwhelmed or stuck. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem.
She also helps with trauma and abuse, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, and anger. Parenting is a named focus and she offers help to parents feeling strained or uncertain.
Background and approach
Cleo has four years of experience working with a wide range of life challenges. She holds BACP registration, which is noted as her professional credential. She works from the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English.
Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. That range allows flexible ways to check in, talk something through, or work on longer term goals. International clients may be supported through these formats.
Her style mixes looking at the roots of a difficulty with short-term steps that make everyday life easier. Conversations aim to be straightforward and practical, so clients leave sessions with clearer next steps. Cleo encourages people to bring what matters most and to shape therapy around their needs.

Approaches Cleo lists

Approaches you can use online
Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that developed over time and how they affect feelings and relationships now. Online sessions can use gentle conversation to uncover repeating themes and help people understand why they react in certain ways.Solution-Focused Therapy emphasises small, practical steps and clear goals. In an online session this can mean setting one or two manageable tasks between meetings and checking progress by phone, chat or video.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Cleo will collaborate with each person to find what fits their needs, goals and preferences. She reviews what helps and adjusts the plan as therapy progresses so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief updates, reflective notes, or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family routines or when travel is difficult, while keeping the focus on progress and achievable change.
