More about Dorothy

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am a qualified person-centred counsellor and psychotherapist. I am a registered member of the BACP; therefore. I adhere to the BACP’s code of ethics and guidelines for good practice. This means that my client's best interest is at the heart of our work.

My background is in the health and social care sector and during this time, I supported numerous people that were facing challenges in their lives. This, taught me that many people just need a listening ear and the time, the space and an environment where they feel heard and understood, in order for them to move forward within their lives. This experience spurred me on to train as a therapist because I passionately believe in the transformational power of personal therapy, having experienced it in my own life journey.

Throughout me professional career I have worked with people from all different walks of life, backgrounds, cultures, ethnicities and I embrace diversity.

I offer a safe, non-judgemental, honest empathic space where you can work through the difficulties you are facing and together, we can explore these so that you can discover solutions or find acceptance. I am committed to making you feel at ease and to fully support you throughout the counselling process.

I have experience in working with people presenting with many different issues such as, depression, bereavement, abuse, anxiety, low-self-esteem, relationship difficulties as well as relationship break down. Also, people that are struggling with to past trauma or difficulties from their childhood. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

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.
