About Dorothi Oviosu
Dorothi Oviosu is an integrative counsellor with nine years of professional practice who supports people facing a wide range of emotional and relational challenges. She combines cognitive behavioural therapy, person-centred work and transactional analysis to tailor sessions to each person’s needs, and she practices within the BACP ethical framework - BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Dorothi has worked with clients dealing with anxiety and depression, eating and food-related concerns, family and relationship issues, trauma and abuse, and a variety of other difficulties that affect everyday functioning and wellbeing.
In therapy she uses practical, creative tools such as life graphs, Russian dolls, blob family exercises, stress balls and sand work to help clients explore patterns, emotions and relationships in ways that feel accessible. She aims to offer a warm, open and honest space where people can be heard and begin to map a path forward. Emphasising non-judgemental listening, congruence and respect for client autonomy, Dorothi encourages clients to notice what has previously been unseen and to reclaim a sense of direction.
Recognising that starting therapy takes courage, she walks alongside clients as they begin that process, supporting them to regain agency and move toward the changes they want to make.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Support
Attachment-based therapy explores how early relationships shape current emotional patterns and interpersonal needs - it helps people who struggle with trust, abandonment, connection or recurring relationship difficulties by focusing on attachment styles and relational safety. Client-centred therapy emphasises a supportive, non-judgemental therapeutic relationship where the therapist offers empathy, genuine presence and unconditional positive regard - this approach can benefit those working through low self-esteem, life transitions, grief or uncertainty by prioritising the client’s own pace and insights. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical strategies to address unhelpful patterns - it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress and coping with day-to-day challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dorothi works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adapting techniques over time so the work remains relevant and effective for each person.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging - provide flexibility and accessibility for many clients. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family and daily life, and they allow people to engage in therapy from locations that feel comfortable for them, while still working closely with licensed professionals and therapists to make meaningful progress.
