About Gina
Gina Zyla is a counsellor with 14 years of experience and a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling Level 5. She holds a BACP membership and works from the United Kingdom. Gina focuses on helping people who are struggling with sleep issues among many other concerns and aims to create a calm, steady space for conversation and change.
Gina keeps sessions centred on what each person brings. She listens first, then uses a mix of approaches chosen to fit the issue. She names Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy among the approaches she uses. Sessions often include practical coping strategies and ways to understand recurring difficulties.
She has long experience supporting people after loss and trauma, and she says healing moves at each person’s pace. Gina works on building trust so people can talk about painful memories and current stresses without feeling pressured. She also uses creative tools such as art-based exercises and inner child work when these suit the person.
Gina helps people address anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, grief, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting stresses, and compassion fatigue. She also offers support around attachment and abandonment worries, caregiver stress, chronic illness, addiction, and practical life changes.
Sessions are offered in English, and she accepts international clients. Gina asks people to start by using the site’s Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, then scheduling as offered. Fees vary with location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience first and focuses on listening, empathy and the relationship in the room. It helps when someone needs steady support to talk through feelings, identity and everyday stresses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and reducing the ongoing effects of traumatic events, using paced work to help people build coping skills and tolerate difficult memories.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then shape sessions around that. This is a collaborative process where plans can change as progress and needs become clearer.
Confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - it can save travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people choose quieter times that suit their schedule. Many people find that remote sessions still offer a strong therapeutic connection and a practical way to keep regular work on sleep, stress and emotional health.
