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.

I've been with Dorothi for almost a month now & I look forward to our sessions every single time. She's a friend I wish to have in real life.
