About

Beatriz Zanichelli Sonego is a Clinical Psychologist and Counsellor with 15 years of experience. She has worked across higher education, community services, healthcare settings and in private practice, and sees adults for individual therapy either online or in person from her consulting room in Oxford, United Kingdom.

She offers open-ended psychotherapy grounded in a psychodynamic approach, aiming to create a compassionate and safe space where people can explore their feelings and life patterns. Her practice emphasises an individualised therapeutic conversation - tailoring the pace and focus to what is most helpful for each person.

Her areas of focus include loss and grief, relationship and family difficulties, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, anxiety and depression, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating-related concerns, career matters, stress, coping with life changes, coaching and compassion fatigue. She is LGBTQIA+ affirmative and welcomes people seeking an affirming therapeutic environment.

As a migrant living in the UK, she is aware of the challenges of adapting to a new country, culture and language, and offers sessions in English and Portuguese. Before beginning longer-term work she offers an initial session so potential benefits and therapeutic fit can be explored together. Beatriz recognises that mental health affects thoughts, feelings and behaviour in different ways for everyone, and she encourages people to reach out if they have questions about starting therapy.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

Online therapy can make a meaningful difference for many common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and adjusting to life changes. Research and clinical practice indicate that for these kinds of issues, remote sessions are often comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person therapy. One major benefit is flexibility - people can choose the way of connecting that suits them best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. This adaptability helps therapy fit around work, caregiving responsibilities and other commitments. Each therapist involved is a licensed professional, and clients can change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many, online therapy provides a practical, accessible route to regular therapeutic support and growth.
