Helping people find clarity through listening
About Zivai
Zivai Mutokonyi works from a client-centred approach that places each person’s experience at the heart of therapy. She focuses on listening carefully and responding to what matters most to the individual. Her way of working is calm and respectful, and she aims to make conversations feel safe and straightforward for someone under stress.
She has 13 years of professional experience and holds BACP membership, which is recorded as BACP. Over that time she has supported people dealing with relationship worries, family conflict and intimacy-related concerns.
Background and approach
She also helps with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and low self-esteem. Zivai often works with people facing life changes and career decisions. She offers coaching-style support alongside therapy to help clarify goals and next steps.
She also helps with communication problems, immigration issues and the fallout from infidelity. Her practice includes attention to multicultural concerns, prejudice and discrimination, and fostering self-love and life purpose. Conversations are tailored to each person, not a one-size-fits-all plan.
Zivai adapts the pace and focus to match what someone needs that week. Sessions are offered in English and Shona, and she works with international clients from the United Kingdom. She encourages people to take small steps toward getting help and to use the matching process to find the right way to begin.

Sessions & fees
Client-centred care delivered online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of each session. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and follows the client’s priorities to help clarify feelings and choices. This approach is often useful for relationship worries, anxiety, grief and questions about life purpose.Because conversations are guided by the individual, the therapist works with clients to choose the focus and pace of therapy. She collaborates on goals and adapts methods as needs change, so finding the best approach happens together rather than being decided in advance.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to match different lifestyles. Video calls let people use body language and facial expression; phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing, want brief check-ins, or need flexible timing.
These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, connect across locations and maintain continuity when schedules shift. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can use these methods to deliver steady, ongoing support that fits how a person wants to work.
