Zoe Maguire

Zoe Maguire is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anger and other difficult emotions. She works with those feeling stressed, anxious, low in self-esteem, or challenged by relationship and family concerns. Zoe aims to create a calm, curious space where people can talk things through at their own pace.

She draws on three main approaches to shape sessions. Client-Centred Therapy keeps the focus on the person and their choices. Existential ideas help people make sense of big life questions and changes. Psychodynamic work looks at repeating patterns and early influences to understand current feelings.

Zoe has three years' experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as BACP. Her background includes work in the NHS and community settings, so she is familiar with a range of life situations and pressures.

In sessions she uses warmth, empathy and curiosity to help people build practical skills and new perspectives. Conversations may cover coping with grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, career pressures, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related difficulties along with many other life stressors.

People often begin by naming one or two issues they want to change. Zoe then works collaboratively to set goals and try small, do-able steps between meetings. This helps turn difficult feelings into clearer choices and manageable actions.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's experience at the heart of the work, offering space to be heard and to make choices that feel right. It suits people who want a supportive listener and practical encouragement for making changes. Existential Therapy focuses on meaning, responsibility and life choices. It can help when big shifts or uncertainty are causing distress and someone wants to clarify values and goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy itself. Zoe will work with each person to decide which methods feel most useful, tailoring sessions to their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change over time as new insights emerge.

Session formats are not stated in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that's helpful. It also allows people to join from wherever they are based in the United Kingdom, making it simpler to continue regular meetings while balancing everyday demands.
