Azora Guimarães, NCPS

Azora Guimarães offers calm, steady support for people facing trauma, anxiety and life transitions. She helps individuals who feel overwhelmed by grief, relationship problems, body image worries, eating issues or the fallout from abuse. Azora keeps things practical and clear, aiming to make each session feel manageable and focused on next steps.

Azora uses a mix of approaches that centre the client’s experience. Sessions often look at attachment patterns, personal values and how past events shape present reactions. She brings coaching tools and reflective exercises to help clients change habits around food and self-image over time.

Her background includes work with university students and volunteering with Women’s Aid as a counsellor and phone buddy. That experience informs how she supports people navigating domestic abuse, sexual violence, court processes, miscarriage and traumatic births. She also runs workshops on race and identity and has created a 12-week reflective booklet to complement therapy work.

Azora draws on neuro-linguistic programming techniques, personal training and coaching to offer practical strategies as well as emotional processing. Couples may come to her to rebuild intimacy, manage cultural differences or work through betrayals and resentments. She aims to help clients find clarity about whether to grow together or move apart.

She is registered with NCPS and has three years of professional experience. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. To begin, clients follow the platform Start Therapy process and schedule a time that suits them.

How Azora’s approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people connect today. It helps with trust, intimacy and coping after attachment wounds. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person, creating space to make their own changes. Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention exercises to reduce anxiety and improve focus in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which method or mix of methods fits the client’s goals and preferences. Together they review what helps and adapt the plan as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins around work breaks or sessions that avoid travel time. It can also allow for flexible scheduling across time zones when international clients are involved. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often tailor techniques to suit the online setting, for example using brief grounded exercises, reflective worksheets and coaching tools that translate well to remote sessions.
