About Dorothi
Dorothi Oviosu is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with nine years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief and issues around intimacy and eating. She also supports concerns such as ADHD, self-esteem, anger and career change.
Her way of working is practical and hands-on. Sessions often use simple tools like life graphs, sand, blob family and stress balls to make patterns easier to see. Dorothi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centred and attachment-based ideas to help people notice thoughts and try different responses.
She aims for clarity in sessions. Conversations focus on the problem at hand and on concrete steps people can try between meetings. Techniques from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and mindfulness may be used when managing strong emotions and building steadier reactions.
Dorothi follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework. She has experience with a wide range of life situations, including divorce and separation, domestic violence, caregiver stress, addiction and recovery, and blended family challenges. She works with people from varied backgrounds and life stages.
Practical planning is part of her approach. Early sessions usually clarify goals and a simple plan. Later sessions track progress and adjust actions so people can build new habits and clearer communication.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Dorothi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thought patterns and try different behaviours. CBT sessions focus on clear problems, practical exercises and short tasks to practise between meetings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how early bonds shape current reactions; it helps when communication and closeness cause repeated conflict. Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals and preferences and agree which methods to prioritise. That collaborative decision means the plan can change if a technique does not fit or new needs emerge. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow follow-up check-ins that are shorter when helpful. Some exercises translate well to remote meetings, such as CBT homework, guided mindfulness practice and structured skill rehearsal, which can be practiced between sessions to reinforce progress.Areas of expertise
