About Zivai
Zivai Mutokonyi is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 13 years of professional experience. She works with adults facing relationship and family concerns, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Zivai also supports people dealing with career uncertainty, life changes and those searching for life purpose.
Her approach centres on Client-Centred Therapy. Sessions focus on the client's priorities and use open conversation to clarify what matters most. Zivai listens for patterns in relationships, communication and reactions to stress so that people can better understand their options.
She has worked across scenarios involving immigration, multicultural concerns and experiences of prejudice and discrimination. She also addresses infidelity, communication problems and anger, combining practical discussion with reflective work. This helps people find clearer next steps rather than quick fixes.
Zivai offers support for coping with loss and bereavement, and for rebuilding self-love and confidence after painful events. Her style is direct and conversational, with room for practical strategies alongside deeper discussion about values and purpose.

Client-Centred work and online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's own experience. The therapist offers attentive listening and reflects what the client shares, helping them clarify feelings and priorities. This approach suits concerns such as relationship difficulties, stress, grief and questions about life purpose.In practice, that means conversations aim to uncover what matters to the client and what steps feel manageable. The therapist helps the client weigh options and decide on goals together. This is a collaborative process where the approach can be adjusted as needs and preferences become clearer.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. They can also allow shorter check-ins when life is hectic or quieter, less intensive conversations when needed, and flexibility for clients who live outside the therapist's local area. The exact session formats are not detailed here, so please confirm current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals will work with you to choose an approach and a session pattern that fits your day-to-day life.
