Otavia is brilliant, extremely helpful, and gets down to the root cause of the issues I've been struggling with. I love the analogies she offers and visuals for me to use as tools to help myself. She is incredibly kind and understanding, I highly recommend her!

Over the past decade, my journey in therapy began with Art Therapy training, sparking a lasting passion for emotional healing. Since then, I've continually expanded my skills and knowledge in this field.
My therapeutic approach is holistic and client centered, emphasising in self-awareness, mindfulness, and emotional healing. I draw from various therapeutic modalities within a humanistic framework, believing strongly in our capacity to interpret and respond to our environment. I recognise the connection between thoughts, emotions, physical health, and the integration of body and mind, especially during challenging times.
Empowering clients to navigate life's challenges involves addressing conscious and often unconscious childhood patterns with compassion and understanding. I equip clients with tools to help them navigate life's challenges.
My decade-long meditation practice enriches my ability to cultivate mindfulness and clarity, which I am happy to share, along with body and breath work, this can help clients to be calmer and be more present in the moment.
I bring collaboration, warmth and support, to create a safe and welcoming space for you. My goal is to help you tap into your natural ability to heal and grow. Along the way, we can work on building self-compassion, emotional resilience, and overall well-being.

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.
