More about Dorothi

  • 9 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am an Integrative counsellor, I have been licensed for 9 years, I work with cognitive behaviour therapy, person centred and transactional analysis. I have worked with individuals from various backgrounds with clients with a wide range of concerns ranging from anxiety, depression, eating orders, family matters, relationship break ups, abuse amongst various other concerns. I work within the BACP ethical framework. I use a range of tools to enable clients with their concerns such as life graphs, Russian dolls, blob family, stress balls and sand.

I believe that treating each individual with warm, openness and honesty with giving them a safe place to be heard is the start of their journeys. I believe being non-judgemental with having congruence with openness and giving individuals autonomy they will be able to have a map of starting and seeing their journey through. I feel having a space from everyday life is often a key to see what was not seen before.

It takes courage to step out and start on this path, one that I feel will fulfil and advance you to where you would like to be, I am here to start this part with you to walk through with you and taking your power back.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I have struggled for years with various issues and never seeked help at times I really could of done with it. Until recently I was checking out betterhelp and came across Dorothi's profile; her eyes radiated kindness and I could sense a form of comfort purely from her profile picture which I took as a sign. I went ahead with my gut feeling and it's the best desicion I've ever made, Dorothi is indeed the kindest and most gentle soul. She is patient and understanding, non judgemental and supportive, her tone of voice is calm and she makes you feel so at ease in every situation whether you're having a good day or a bad day not to mention the fact she is actually really cool (could deffinately see her as a friend) ♡ Thank you for all you have done and all you keep doing for me Dorothi.
