About Azora
Azora Guimarães is a counsellor who helps people facing trauma, relationship strains, grief and difficulties with food and body image. She works with individuals who feel overwhelmed by past abuse, coping with loss, managing anxiety, or adjusting to a new diagnosis such as ADHD or autism. Sessions are practical and focused on making daily life feel more manageable.
Azora draws on three years of experience in therapeutic roles and community volunteering to shape her work. She combines client-centred listening with psychodynamic ideas to explore patterns from the past. Attachment-based techniques are used to look at how relationships affect emotional safety and closeness.
She also uses tools from coaching, personal training and neuro-linguistic programming to support people who want to change habits around eating and body image. Azora has developed a 12-week reflective booklet that clients may use alongside therapy to reshape views about food.
Her background includes supporting people affected by domestic abuse and sexual violence through volunteer counselling and support calls. She has worked with university students and delivered workshops on identity and race, including a session called "The Complexity of Skin Colour".
In couple work she helps partners rebuild intimacy, manage cultural differences and recover from betrayals or traumatic births. Across all work she aims to offer steady support, concrete coping strategies and space to make sense of difficult experiences.
If someone is unsure whether Azora is the right fit, the usual next step is to try an initial session and see how the approach feels in practice.
How Azora's approaches translate to online therapy
Azora uses attachment-based work to look at how early and current relationships shape a person's sense of safety and connection; this approach can help with intimacy issues, abandonment worries and family-of-origin concerns. Client-centred therapy puts the person's experience at the heart of sessions and focuses on empathic listening and collaboration to build understanding and self-direction. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices alongside reflective work, which can help manage anxiety, stress and emotional overwhelm.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. She will work together with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative planning means sessions can shift over time as priorities change.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online therapy useful because it can fit around work or family life, reduce travel time and make it easier to keep regular appointments. Online sessions can also make check-ins shorter when needed, and they allow people to access a therapist from outside their immediate area.
