About Ornella
Ornella Tohme is a counsellor who uses a client-centred approach to help people make changes in their lives. She works in the United Kingdom and speaks English, Arabic and French. Ornella brings eight years of professional experience to her practice, offering a steady and respectful presence for people facing difficult moments.
She commonly supports people dealing with stress and anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also helps with grief, addictions, intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, anger and career transitions.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters most to the individual and move at a pace they find comfortable. Ornella aims to treat everyone with sensitivity and respect. She adapts conversations and the plan of work to match a person's needs and goals.
The emphasis is on listening first, then finding practical ways forward together. People meet her for a mix of short-term problem-solving and longer work on deeper patterns. She encourages honest talk about feelings, relationships and life changes.
The goal is to help people feel more able to cope and make choices that suit them. If someone is unsure where to begin, she guides them through the early steps. That might mean focusing on immediate worries first, or working gently through past hurts over time.
Ornella aims to empower each person to take the next right step for them.

Approaches Ornella lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Finding the right way of working is part of therapy. Ornella will explore what feels most useful and adjust the approach as sessions progress. The process is collaborative - goals, timing and methods are agreed together and reviewed as needed to fit the person's needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when people want face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Text-based messaging or live chat can suit shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or people who find writing easier than talking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family or travel.
