About Dorothi
Dorothi Oviosu is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with nine years' experience. She supports people working through stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, LGBT issues, grief, intimacy and eating difficulties, and anger among other areas.
She uses a mix of approaches including attachment-based work, client-centred techniques, cognitive behavioural ideas, dialectical behaviour skills and mindfulness. Sessions draw on practical tools such as life graphs, sand work, stress balls and creative exercises to help people notice patterns and test small changes.
Dorothi describes her style as open and honest. She gives people time to be heard and helps them build a clearer view of their difficulties. That includes mapping how past attachments and current relationships shape reactions like irritation, resentment or outbursts.
Practical techniques sit alongside reflective conversation. Clients may practise grounding, breathing and DBT-style skills in session. Cognitive approaches are used to spot thinking patterns that fuel anger and stress, and to rehearse alternatives.
She works within the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework. Her practice aims to support people planning steps forward, whether that is managing strong emotions, repairing a relationship, or getting steadier at work and at home.
How sessions work
Approach-led online counselling and practical skills
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions. It helps people understand why they might feel easily triggered, cling to or push away others, and how that links to anger or resentment.Client-centred practice gives space for a person to be heard without judgement. This approach supports reflection and helps people find their own priorities for change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going and offers concrete steps to try different responses to anger and stress.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide what feels most useful based on goals and day-to-day needs. That might mean practising DBT skills for emotion regulation, using mindfulness exercises to reduce reactivity, or mapping attachment patterns together.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can help adapt exercises for video or audio sessions, and will discuss what will work best for each person.
