About Desta
Desta "Dee" Davies-Boothe is a counsellor accredited by the BACP with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and life changes, and offers practical support for motivation and confidence concerns.
Dee focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and try different ways of responding. Sessions tend to be straightforward and conversational. She adapts the pace to each person and uses clear techniques rather than abstract language.
Her practice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centred and narrative approaches. That means she pays attention to thoughts and behaviours while also listening to personal stories that shape how someone sees themselves. Mindfulness ideas are used where helpful to develop simpler ways to manage strong feelings.
Dee has worked with issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, adoption and foster care matters, and challenges linked to ageing or caregiver stress. She also has experience with communication difficulties, codependency, body image and coping after natural or human-caused disasters.
Sessions are practical and goal-focused. Dee helps people break bigger problems into small, manageable steps. She supports clients who want clearer ways to respond to stress, improve confidence, and handle changes in their lives.
How Dee uses structured approaches in online sessions
Dee commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going. CBT sessions focus on clear steps and practical exercises that a person can try between meetings to test what helps.She also works from a client-centred perspective, which means conversations start with the person’s concerns and aim to make space for their own priorities. Narrative therapy is used to map how personal stories shape feelings and choices, which can help with relationship or identity concerns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Dee will discuss goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. That collaborative choice helps decide whether to emphasise thought-behaviour work, reflective conversation, or short mindfulness practices.
