About Selamawit
Selamawit Zere is a counsellor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety and relationship difficulties. She also supports those coping with trauma, grief and anger. Selamawit works from a strengths-based view and treats each person as the expert on their own life. She describes the first step towards change as an act of courage and aims to walk alongside clients as they take it.
She uses straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with panic attacks and ongoing anxiety symptoms. Sessions tend to involve talking through current difficulties, identifying helpful patterns, and practising manageable strategies to reduce distress. The emphasis is on practical steps people can use between meetings.
With three years of experience in the UK, Selamawit has worked with a range of concerns including attachment worries, body image and isolation. Her training is recorded as BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She offers therapy in English, Amharic and Tigrinya.
People seeking support will find a calm, respectful approach that values their strengths. Selamawit aims to create a space where issues can be named, options tried, and progress tracked in small, steady steps. She encourages realistic goals and flexible ways to get there.

Approaches and online working
Selamawit uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change. One approach she draws on helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test them against real life, which can reduce anxiety and the intensity of panic episodes. Another method emphasises small behavioural changes and step-by-step exposure to feared situations to build confidence and lower avoidance.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest options to try. This shared decision making means plans can be adjusted if something does not feel helpful.
Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, remove travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits you. It can also be useful when someone needs quieter surroundings, less screen time, or a session that fits around work or family commitments.
