Cleo Irish Zorrilla uses psychodynamic and solution-focused approaches to help people untangle difficult feelings and find practical ways forward. She is based in the United Kingdom and works in English. Cleo holds BACP accreditation and brings four years of practice experience to her work.

People come to Cleo with many concerns, from stress and anxiety to depression, trauma and addictions. She also helps with relationship and family difficulties, grief, eating and sleeping problems, anger, parenting strain, career decisions and life changes.

Background and approach

Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, guilt and shame, and panic symptoms. In sessions Cleo blends talking about past patterns with short-term goals. The psychodynamic element looks at how earlier experiences shape current reactions.

Solution-focused techniques aim to identify small, practical steps that make a real difference between sessions. Cleo offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different routines. She accepts international clients and matches session format to what a person needs, whether that is a longer video exploration or brief check-ins by message.

Costs vary with location and therapist availability and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How psychodynamic and solution-focused work online

Psychodynamic Therapy gently explores how past patterns influence current feelings and reactions; it can help when recurring themes such as attachment, abandonment or chronic anxiety keep coming up. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on what people want to achieve now and identifies small, practical changes to move towards those goals quickly.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide whether to spend more time on understanding underlying patterns or on short-term steps to manage symptoms and build skills.

Online sessions offer flexibility in how therapy fits daily life. Video calls allow longer, more in-depth conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when a lighter connection is preferred or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, quick problem-solving and people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family and travel commitments.
