Background and approach
She also helps with intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem and depression. Zivai offers practical help for life changes and career questions. She works with people facing immigration stress, experiences of prejudice and discrimination, and those dealing with infidelity or communication problems.
Coaching around life purpose and self-love is also part of her practice. In sessions she adapts the conversation to each person. The client-centred way means the therapist follows the client’s pace and priorities.
Zivai listens, reflects what she hears, and helps people name their next steps. She communicates in English and Shona and welcomes international clients. Sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging.
To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

Ways of working Zivai names
Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
Client-centred care delivered online
Zivai works from a client-centred perspective, which means the conversation follows the person rather than a fixed script. This approach involves active listening, reflection and helping people choose practical next steps. It is well suited to relationship concerns, self-esteem work and coping with life changes.She also uses the same client-led stance when helping with stress, anxiety, grief and trauma-related matters. That means sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and on building the skills they want to use outside sessions. The counsellor adapts pace and tone to match the person’s needs rather than imposing a plan.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will talk through options, listen to your goals and tailor the way you work so it fits your needs, preferences and life circumstances.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is good for deeper conversations and visual connection. Phone calls suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who have limited bandwidth. Live chat and messaging can fit quick check-ins, shorter sessions or busy schedules. These options make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life and to access support from different places.
