About Dorothi
Dorothi Oviosu is a counsellor who supports people with stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief and self-esteem issues. Dorothi works in a warm and honest way to create a space where people can be heard and begin to make changes.
She draws on nine years of clinical practice and follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework, which guides how she works.
Background and approach
Her sessions are person-centred in tone, with practical tools used when helpful. Those tools can include simple exercises such as life graphs, sand work and other visual aids to help make difficult material clearer. Dorothi often focuses on attachment and relationship patterns, and she combines this with cognitive and skills-based techniques when needed.
She aims to help people understand how past experiences affect current feelings and behaviours, and to build concrete steps toward different choices. People who meet her can expect a non-judgemental presence and straightforward talking. She encourages honesty and client autonomy so individuals can map out their start point and progress.
Dorothi describes the work as collaborative - she walks alongside people as they reclaim more control over their lives. Her approach suits those looking for practical ways to manage emotions and improve relationships. Sessions are offered in English and she works with both national and international clients.
Dorothi aims to make the process clear and manageable for people taking the first step.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try different methods to see what feels most helpful. That makes the work collaborative so clients can steer the focus toward what matters to them.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video works well when visual connection helps the work, phone can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging is useful for brief check-ins or when writing helps reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel schedules while keeping the focus on progress and practical change.
