About Doreen

Dr. Doreen Fleet uses an approachable, person-centred style to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or life change. She is Dr Doreen Fleet, a BACP counsellor with over 23 years of experience working with a wide range of emotional and practical concerns.

Her sessions focus on what matters to each person. She draws on client-centred work to listen without judgement and on CBT to help spot unhelpful thinking patterns.

Background and approach

Trauma-focused methods and mindfulness are used where past hurt or flashbacks get in the way of everyday life. People come to her for many reasons, including low self-esteem, relationship strain, parenting stress, career confusion or intense feelings after loss. She also supports those struggling with anger, compassion fatigue, panic, body image, or feelings of emptiness and isolation.

Her approach is collaborative. She helps people set clear goals and breaks them down into small, manageable steps. Sessions mix gentle questioning, practical strategies and mindfulness exercises to build coping skills and reduce distress.

Dr Fleet works with people across the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. Conversations are offered in English and can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are scheduled to suit both parties.

Approach-focused support delivered online

Dr Fleet blends Trauma-Focused Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to respond to different needs. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps when past events continue to cause distress by gently addressing painful memories and their current effects. Client-Centred Therapy prioritises the person in the room, offering non-judgemental listening and helping clients find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at thinking patterns and behaviours, offering practical steps to manage anxiety, panic attacks or depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods as progress is made. This collaborative process means the plan can change if something is not working.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distances. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day and need less bandwidth. Live chat or messaging can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer typed communication. These options make it easier to arrange regular sessions and to keep therapy going around work, family or travel commitments.
