About Dorothy
She previously worked in health and social care. That background involved supporting people through practical and emotional challenges. Those years showed her how much a listening ear and time to reflect can help someone move forward.
Dorothy trained as a counsellor after experiencing the benefits of therapy in her own life. She uses empathic listening and honest feedback so people can explore choices, find acceptance or take steps toward change. Sessions focus on the person's priorities rather than on labels or diagnoses.
Her practice has included people dealing with depression, bereavement, abuse, anxiety and low self-esteem. She also supports those facing relationship breakdown, workplace pressures and the effects of past trauma. Dorothy emphasises respect for cultural and personal differences in every session.
People can expect a non-judgemental atmosphere and steady support while they work through difficult issues. She aims to help clients feel more able to cope, make decisions and build self-compassion over time.

How person-centred therapy fits with online counselling
Client-centred therapy puts the person at the heart of the work and relies on empathic listening and respect. This approach helps people clarify what matters most to them and work through feelings like grief, anxiety or difficulties from past trauma. It is suited to issues that need time, reflection and a steady therapeutic relationship.Her background in health and social care means she often focuses on providing a calm, non-judgemental space during sessions. Together the therapist and client explore priorities, test small changes and decide which approaches feel right. Choosing the best way of working is a collaborative process throughout therapy.
The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow for shorter or more flexible check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote sessions help maintain continuity of support alongside everyday responsibilities.
