We set goals, track progress and name what is stuck.
How we can work together · One-to-one counselling
Just you, me, and the hard conversations.
One person. One room. No scripts. No shortcuts. Private, honest work for people who are ready to stop recycling the same patterns.
“I don't take everyone. I take people who are willing to work — not just talk.”
“Group workshops show you the mirror. Individual sessions help you change what you see.”
01 · WHAT INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS OFFER
A space that follows only you.
Dorothy works with you one on one, face-to-face, with online sessions available for overseas clients. She feels with you, but does not drown with you. She holds you accountable, not codependent.
01 · Privacy
Room for sensitive, complicated or painful material — without an audience.
02 · Your pace
The work follows your needs, not a class timetable or another person's agenda.
03 · Mind + performance
An integration of counselling and executive coaching: emotional truth with practical movement.
02 · WHO IT IS FOR
Ready to stop going in circles?
Individual counselling is for people who are ready to stop recycling the same patterns.
“I've tried everything. I need someone who won't just nod.”
- Anxiety that won't quiet down
- Life transitions — divorce, career change or loss
- Executive pressure or burnout: high-functioning but empty
- Relationship struggles and repeating the same fights
- Attracting the wrong partners
- Past trauma that still leaks into today
- A sense that talking alone is no longer enough
03 · DOROTHY'S UNIQUE APPROACH
Not passive listening. Active partnership.
This is not traditional talk therapy where you vent for 60 minutes, or listen to a professional's presentation and leave. You will be heard — and you will be expected to move.

Your feelings are welcome, but they are not the final destination.

Insights mean nothing without behaviour change.

You will laugh. You will also be challenged.

YOUR PART
Your commitment
Dorothy asks for a minimum commitment, typically 6–9 sessions, because real change takes time.
This is a working relationship: arrive on time, stay honest, and practise what you discover between sessions.
6–9 sessions, typically05 · GENUINELY UNSURE?
Start with an honest answer.
A one-time fact-finding session gives you space to meet Dorothy, share your situation openly, and receive honest feedback and suggestions on what to do next.
One session may not change your life. But it will give you a clear direction — and an honest answer about whether we are a good fit.
06 · BEFORE YOU ENQUIRE
Are you ready to dive?
Individual counselling is for people who already know they are ready to work — not only talk about working.
Am I willing to be honest — even when it is embarrassing?
Am I ready to stop blaming and start acting?
Can I show up on time, every time, without my phone?
