About Zoleikha

NCPS, 19 years' professional experience. Dr. Zoleikha Gholizadeh practises in the United Kingdom and works with people on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression and ADHD. She speaks English, Azerbaijani and Persian and accepts international clients.

Dr Gholizadeh focuses on straightforward talking and practical support. She encourages honest discussion of thoughts and feelings and aims to reduce shame around difficult topics. Sessions are intended to be non-judgemental and to help clients take manageable steps towards change.

Her background spans nearly two decades of clinical work in related concerns. She has supported people experiencing panic, phobias, obsessive and compulsive behaviours, postpartum depression and post-traumatic stress. Additional areas she addresses include fertility and cancer-related distress, hoarding, control issues, guilt and shame, impulsivity, jealousy and isolation.

She describes her approach as evidence-based therapeutic techniques. In practice this means focusing on methods that address thoughts, behaviours and emotional regulation to help with mood disorders and anxiety patterns. The emphasis is on practical strategies and clearer understanding of problems.

Sessions are organised through the site process. Costs vary by location and are provided via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, users follow the online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange the first appointment.

Approaches used and how online sessions work

Dr Gholizadeh works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Cognitive approaches help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try out different ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and low mood. Behavioural strategies focus on changing routines and actions that keep problems going, which can help with panic, phobias and compulsive behaviours.

Decisions about approach are collaborative. The therapist will talk through options with the client, consider their goals and preferences, and agree on methods that seem most useful for the issues presented. That process can include trying different techniques and adjusting as work progresses.

The site lists how to arrange sessions and fees vary by location, with a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm the available formats before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten travel time and allow brief check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often find remote sessions effective for ongoing work and focused skill-building.
