About Selamawit
Selamawit Zere is a counsellor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, anger and difficult relationships. She works in English and in Amharic and Tigrinya, and speaks plainly so conversations are easy to follow. Selamawit describes clients as the experts in their own lives and focuses on practical steps that fit each person’s situation.
She draws on three years of experience supporting people who have faced trauma and abuse, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress and issues around sexuality and body image.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and paced to suit each person. She listens for what matters most and helps clients try out new ways of coping between meetings. Selamawit is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
That connection guides her practice and professional standards. Her work is informed by straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques and by a belief in each person’s strengths. Clients can expect a calm, matter-of-fact approach that focuses on manageable goals.
She helps people untangle communication problems, attachment worries, guilt and shame, and the isolation that can follow hard experiences. Practical tools and regular check-ins form the core of the work. Sessions suit adults who want to reduce anxiety, process loss, or change patterns that cause distress.
Selamawit helps clients find clearer ways to cope, communicate and rebuild everyday routines that feel more manageable.

Everything Selamawit lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Selamawit uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach involves building coping skills for anxiety and panic - learning short exercises to manage sudden symptoms and steady breathing techniques that reduce immediate distress. Another strand of her work focuses on trauma-informed methods that help people slowly process painful memories, recognise triggers and develop safety plans for when distress rises.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Selamawit will work with each person to identify goals, try different methods and adjust the plan as progress is made. She values the client’s judgment about what feels helpful and adapts sessions to match needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexibility and makes regular contact easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text-based messaging is useful for brief check-ins or when typing feels simpler. These options help clients fit therapy around work, family life and time zones while keeping momentum between sessions.
