About Issaka
Issaka Zango is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, low self-esteem, grief, addictions and difficulties adjusting to life changes. He also lists life purpose among his focus areas and supports people dealing with ADHD, bipolar concerns and compassion fatigue.
Issaka uses a conversational style in sessions. He aims to help people name what feels hard and to develop practical ways of coping. He does not give orders or quick fixes; instead he works alongside clients to build clearer thinking and steadier responses to everyday pressures.
His approach draws on client-centred listening, Jungian ideas about meaning, motivational interviewing and psychodynamic perspectives. He also references Internal Family Systems tools to help people notice different parts of themselves and how those parts interact. Sessions emphasise reflection, direct conversation and practical strategies for situations that feel stuck.
Issaka describes therapy as a process that deepens over time. Early work often focuses on making sense of upsetting events, reducing distressing symptoms and setting small, manageable goals. Later sessions can shift toward exploring values, identity and decisions about work, relationships or life direction.
People who choose Issaka can expect clear, plain spoken discussion and collaborative planning. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to see how the way he works fits their needs.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on open listening and helping people identify what matters to them. It suits issues like low self-esteem, life direction and coping with change because sessions centre on the client's view of their situation.Jungian-informed work looks at personal meaning and recurring life themes. It can help when people want to understand why certain patterns repeat or to explore questions about identity and purpose.
Motivational Interviewing is a practical, goal-oriented method for resolving ambivalence and making changes. It is often used for behaviours such as substance use or for building momentum toward career and lifestyle decisions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their needs, goals and preferences, and will adapt these as work progresses.
