Therapist blending insight with practical change
About Cleo
Cleo Irish Zorrilla offers psychodynamic and solution-focused approaches to therapy. She uses these methods to help people understand patterns from the past and make clear, practical changes in the present. Cleo practises in the United Kingdom and communicates in English.
She is a member of the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and has four years of professional experience. Cleo helps with a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression and mood disorders.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, addictions, sleep and eating issues, and panic or phobic reactions. Relationship and communication problems, feelings of isolation, and struggles with self-esteem are part of her focus too. Additionally she works with life changes such as career shifts, midlife questioning, grief and parenting strain.
Specific areas she pays attention to include abandonment and attachment issues, body image, guilt and shame, and family problems. She aims to address both the immediate problem and the background that feeds it. In sessions Cleo blends listening with practical steps.
Psychodynamic work looks at earlier experiences that shape current feelings. Solution-focused work targets small, manageable changes to build momentum. This mix is intended to balance understanding with action.
Sessions are available online for international clients and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How psychodynamic and solution-focused work online
Psychodynamic therapy helps people notice how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions. Online psychodynamic sessions give time to reflect on recurring patterns and how they affect daily life, which can be useful for anxiety, attachment concerns and long-standing mood issues.Solution-focused therapy focuses on small, practical steps that move a person toward their goals. Online sessions using this approach often concentrate on setting short-term aims and testing simple changes, which can help with stress, low mood, panic and coping with life transitions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work itself. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods over time. That way the plan stays aligned with the person's needs, goals and preferences and remains collaborative.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or messaging can be used for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options offer flexibility and make it simpler to arrange therapy around busy lives.
