About Betty
Betty Adhokorie welcomes people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or big life changes. She introduces calm, practical steps so clients can start to feel steadier. Betty works in English and accepts international clients from the United Kingdom.
She listens first and asks clear questions to understand what matters most. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and on small, achievable goals. Conversations are straightforward and down-to-earth rather than full of clinical jargon.
How Betty works
With nine years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), Betty draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She uses approaches that help people process painful memories, manage strong emotions and build healthier daily habits. Common areas she supports include trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, anger, addictions and compassion fatigue.
She also helps people dealing with self-esteem, guilt and shame, communication problems, control issues, isolation and questions about life purpose. Practical tools and reflective conversation are mixed in each session. That can mean learning ways to cope during intense moments, making plans to change unhelpful patterns, or talking through forgiveness and self-love.
The aim is steady progress at a realistic pace. To begin, Betty asks about current concerns and what the person hopes to achieve. She then agrees an approach together so therapy fits the individual’s needs and day-to-day life.

Online support options
Approaches you can try online with a therapist
Betty uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding and change. One common approach helps people process difficult memories and reduce their emotional impact by carefully revisiting and reworking what happened. This can ease symptoms of trauma and abuse and make painful memories less overwhelming.Another approach focuses on building practical coping skills for anxiety, low mood and strong emotions. It teaches simple routines and strategies to manage day-to-day stress, improve sleep, and reduce rumination. These tools are useful when life feels chaotic or when someone needs steadier moods.
Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist will talk through goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. That collaborative step helps tailor sessions so they match what the person needs and how they prefer to work.
Online formats offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow more face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. Many people find this mix makes therapy easier to fit into their routine while still making steady progress.
