About Azora
Azora Guimares is a counsellor who helps people facing trauma, relationship strain and struggles with identity. She works alongside those coping with abuse, loss, eating and body-image issues, anxiety, ADHD and other life changes. Her approach aims to make the next steps clearer and more manageable.
Azora combines practical coaching skills with therapeutic listening. Sessions commonly focus on building coping strategies, making sense of difficult experiences, and improving day-to-day functioning. She uses tools such as a 12-week reflective booklet to support work on food and body image alongside talking therapy.
Her background includes volunteering with Women’s Aid as a counsellor and phone buddy. That experience informs her approach to supporting people affected by domestic abuse, sexual violence and childhood trauma, including navigating the impact of court processes when needed.
Azora also runs workshops on identity and race, and has helped people deal with racism at work and everyday microaggressions. She supports conversations around parenthood, miscarriage and traumatic births, and helps people weigh decisions about family life and relationship futures.
She blends approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centred listening, psychodynamic thinking, mindfulness and the Gottman method for relationship work. With three years of practice and the NCPS credential, Azora brings a mixture of therapeutic and coaching perspectives to sessions. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire.
How Azora uses different approaches in online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect how people connect now. It helps when past bonds leave people feeling uncertain, anxious or caught in repeated patterns. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person, giving space to make their own choices and build confidence. The Gottman method offers practical ways for partners to change interactions, rebuild trust and strengthen emotional connection during relationship work.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Azora will work collaboratively to understand your needs, aims and preferences, and together you will decide which methods to try and when to adjust the plan. The aim is to find a fit that feels useful rather than forcing a single way of working.
Please confirm the specific session formats before booking as they are not specified in the biography. Online counselling can help people fit therapy into busy lives by reducing travel, making it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, and allowing sessions around work or family commitments. It can also make it simpler to keep therapy consistent when living in a different region from the counsellor.
