About Dorothi

Dorothi Oviosu is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions and relationship problems. She also supports those dealing with parenting pressures, grief, intimacy concerns, eating issues and self-esteem difficulties. She works with people on career changes, ADHD-related struggles and coping with major life transitions.

Her style is warm and direct. She offers a calm space to talk and listens without judgement. She aims to help clients notice patterns and find practical steps they can try between sessions.

Background and approach

Dorothi follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, ethical framework. She brings nine years of experience to her practice. That experience includes helping people with family matters, break-ups and a range of trauma-related issues.

She uses familiar, hands-on tools in sessions, such as life graphs, sand work, stress balls and visual diagrams. These tools are used to make thoughts and feelings easier to see and talk about. Sessions are focused on what matters to the person sitting in front of her.

In therapy she draws on approaches like client-centred work and cognitive behavioural ideas to address thinking patterns. She also uses attachment-based and mindfulness-informed ways to help with relationships and emotion regulation. The aim is practical progress - clearer choices, better coping and a stronger sense of direction.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways in relationships and supports clearer choices about closeness and trust. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person in front of the counsellor. It uses empathic listening and acceptance to help people find their own solutions and move at their own pace. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It offers practical steps to test new ways of thinking and doing, which can reduce anxiety, low mood and stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and agree a plan based on the person’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people talk face to face without travel. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging can suit those who prefer typing their thoughts or need flexible timing. These formats aim to make counselling more accessible while keeping the focus on practical steps and emotional change.
