Erika Zazzu
Person Centred Counselling & Psychotherapy
My name is Erika, and I am a fully trained counsellor dedicated to supporting you to reach your full potential. I offer online and telephone sessions as well as walk and talk therapy within the UK and also offer some face to face sessions in Blackpool FY2. You can find out more about my service here.
I truly believe counselling can change your life, you can reach your full potential, just like any living being given the right conditions, it will grow and flourish. We are all humanly flawed and with this relationship you can find trust, acceptance and direction. We were always built for this connection which is why this works. Please never feel there is no hope as I am here, I truly care and I believe that's why you're reading this.
I have worked with clients with a wide range of issues; I'm often drawn to working with low self-esteem, people pleasing, the inner critic, parenting and self-compassion. I also have an interest in working with neurodivergence as I am neurodivergent myself, which has contributed to a lot of insecurities of my own. I have a strong interest in the connection between the body and mind and the way we can find the unknown emotions in our body when we have pushed them down or often intellectualise them, using Buddhist values to underpin my compassionate nature and work with clients.

I work with a person-centred approach while taking aspects of Buddhist philosophy and mind-body connection, as I have seen how powerful this relationship can be, in my own experience of counselling as well as with clients I have worked with. I don't want to lie and tell you this is easy and I will give you all the answers because lets be honest, you can find the answers through endless avenues like google, social media YouTube and so on. However, this obviously hasn't worked or you wouldn't be reading this. Advice is what you get from friends and family.
