About Beatriz

Beatriz Zanichelli Sonego works from a client-centred and attachment-informed perspective. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, loss or big life changes. Her approach aims to create a steady, respectful space where people can talk through what matters to them and start to make practical changes.

She has 15 years of experience working in higher education, community settings, healthcare and independent practice across the United Kingdom.

Background and approach

That background means she is used to different routines and pressures, and to supporting people through career shifts, grief and relationship strain. She supports people who identify as LGBT and offers sessions in English and Portuguese. In sessions she blends client-centred listening with attachment-based ideas about how relationships shape feelings.

She also uses practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to address unhelpful thinking and DBT-style skills for managing strong emotions. The work is tailored to each person and may include short goal-focused exercises between sessions. People often come for help with self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, body image and eating issues, or after separation and bereavement.

She also supports those coping with caregiving stress, compassion fatigue and life transitions that leave them unsure what comes next. Therapy begins with an initial session to see how the relationship might help. Sessions can be booked online and are offered by video call, telephone, live chat or text messaging.

Fees follow a subscription model and can be cancelled at any time.

Online support

Beatriz commonly combines client-centred work with attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions, which suits those who need space to talk and be heard. Attachment-based ideas look at how close relationships influence feelings and behaviour, which can help with intimacy, abandonment and trust issues. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) offers practical ways to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, often useful for depression and anxiety.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit the person’s needs and goals. That conversation usually begins in the first session and can shift as progress is made or priorities change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, live chat works well for quick check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options help people access consistent support around work, caregiving or other commitments.
