About Zivai
Counsellor (BACP), 13 years' experience. Zivai Mutokonyi helps people with relationship and family concerns, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and intimacy-related issues using a client-centred approach. She speaks English and Shona and works with people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Zivai uses client-centred therapy to make sessions focused on each person's priorities. She listens for what matters most and follows the client's pace rather than imposing a strict plan. Sessions commonly address communication problems, infidelity, immigration-related stress, and negotiating life changes such as career shifts or loss.
Her work includes short-term support and longer conversations about deeper patterns. People bring issues such as anger, low self-esteem, depression, and questions about purpose or self-love. Zivai also attends to multicultural concerns and experiences of prejudice and discrimination when these affect daily life.
In conversation she aims to be respectful and sensitive, shaping the dialogue around practical next steps and coping strategies. Coaching-style conversations are available alongside therapeutic work for those wanting clearer goals and action plans.
Practical arrangements use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session using the See online therapy options button.

How client-centred work translates to online sessions
Client-centred therapy places the client's perspective at the centre of each session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and adjusts the pace and focus to match the client's needs. This approach suits concerns like relationship strain, anxiety, grief and issues connected to identity or discrimination because it follows what feels most pressing to the person.In practice, Zivai combines open conversational listening with goal-oriented coaching when helpful. That means some meetings emphasise exploring feelings and meaning, while others take a practical problem-solving route for communication skills, anger management or career decisions. The selection of techniques is discussed together so the approach fits the client's goals and preferences.
Session formats are not specified in the biography; please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work and family routines, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in when needed. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use a mix of meeting styles to balance deeper work with practical check-ins, and this therapist will work with each person to find what fits their life and aims.
