Joy through wellbeing
Mudita Therapy
Joy through wellbeing
Mudita is a word in Sanskrit and Pali that has no counterpart in English.
Mudita could be described as an inner source of joy that is always available, in all circumstances.
Welcome.
Reaching out for therapy can feel like one of the hardest things you’ll ever do.
It's also one of the bravest.
You may have been carrying difficult thoughts or emotions for a long time.
You don’t have to carry it all by yourself.
My name is Zoe, and I offer a warm, compassionate and thoughtful space where you can slow down, feel heard, and begin to make sense of whatever has brought you here. I believe that every person’s story deserves to be understood with curiosity, kindness and without judgement.
Over the past 15 years, I’ve worked alongside people experiencing trauma, emotional distress, complex relationships, personality difficulties and the lasting impact of painful life experiences. Whether working within prisons, forensic services or the NHS, one thing has remained constant: people want to feel understood before they can begin to change. Examples of areas we can work together with are:
-
Feeling anxious, depressed, low or overwhelmed
-
Experiencing stress, burnout or difficulty coping
-
Struggling with confidence, self esteem or motivation
-
Difficulties with relationships
-
Feeling stuck, lost or unsure
-
Repeating problematic patterns
Therapy isn’t about fixing what’s “wrong” with you. It’s about understanding your experiences, recognising your strengths, and finding new ways of responding to life’s challenges so that you can move towards the life you want to live.
If you’re considering therapy, I hope you’ll find this website helpful in deciding whether I’m the right therapist for you. Choosing a therapist is a personal decision, and I believe the relationship we build together is one of the most important parts of the process.
You are very welcome here.
My approach
I have always been fascinated by people.
Not simply by what people do, but by why they do it.
Throughout my life, I’ve been drawn to understanding human behaviour with curiosity rather than judgement. I believe that every person’s experiences shape the way they see themselves, others and the world around them.
At the heart of my work is a simple belief: every person deserves to feel heard, understood and accepted. I don’t believe people are defined by their diagnosis, their past, their struggles or the mistakes they may have made. I believe change is possible for all of us—not because our past can be erased, but because we can develop a different relationship with it.
My hope is that, within therapy, you experience a space where you don’t have to perform, pretend or protect yourself. A space where you can be curious about your thoughts, emotions and experiences without fear of being judged.
I work collaboratively alongside you, because I don’t believe therapy is about someone giving you the answers. I believe you already hold many of the strengths and resources you need. Sometimes those strengths become hidden beneath life’s challenges, painful experiences or long-held beliefs about yourself. Together, we can begin to uncover them.
My experience
I am a qualified Integrative Therapist and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP).
I remain committed to ongoing professional development and continually deepen my knowledge through further training, reflective practice and supervision. My work is rooted in trauma-informed practice, attachment theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT) and other evidence-based approaches that support people in building lives that feel meaningful, connected and authentic.
I work online, using Zoom, and my fee is £75 for a 50 minute session. Concessionary rates are available.
