About Zoe
Zoe Powell Martin is a counsellor who works from an existential perspective. She focuses on helping people make sense of life changes, relationship struggles, anxiety and stress. Zoe uses straightforward conversation to help clients find clearer ways to cope and move forward.
She creates a calm, respectful space where clients set the pace and priorities. Sessions are shaped together so the work feels relevant and manageable. Zoe aims to be warm and non-judgemental while helping people explore difficult feelings.
Background and approach
Her practice draws on a blend of approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. These methods add practical tools for managing thoughts and actions alongside deeper exploration of meaning and values. Attachment-based ideas also inform how she looks at relationship patterns.
Zoe has seven years of experience and holds BACP accreditation. She works with a wide range of concerns such as depression, trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, ADHD and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with caregiving strain, chronic illness and body image challenges.
Sessions are offered online in English and international clients are welcomed. Therapy is arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Existential Therapy helps people look at life’s big questions and personal values. It supports those facing change, identity questions, or uncertainty by encouraging honest reflection and choice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or ACT combines acceptance of difficult feelings with committed action that matches personal values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and behavioural changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and trust, which is useful for intimacy, communication and relationship difficulties.Deciding on an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through what matters most to the client, try methods that seem likely to help, and adjust the plan as work progresses. Clients are invited to give feedback so the approach stays relevant to their goals and day-to-day life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls suit deeper conversational work, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break, while live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins and reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments and make it easier to keep continuity when life changes.
