About Litea

Litea Dakunimata is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She brings six years of practice helping people manage stress, anxiety, shame, low self-esteem and difficult life transitions. She works in plain, respectful language and aims to create a calm space to talk things through.

Litea tailors each conversation and plan to the person sitting opposite her, focusing on what feels most useful in the moment. Her work covers a broad range of concerns.

How Litea works

People come to her for help with grief, relationship strains, parenting pressures, career worries, anger and depression. She also offers support for trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and family-origin problems. Additional areas she attends to include abandonment, blended family issues, caregiver stress, commitment and communication problems, and the effects of migration.

She is careful to listen for what life events have shaped a person and how those experiences show up now. Sessions are conversational and rooted in the client’s own priorities. Litea draws on client-centred and existential ideas to help people clarify values, find meaning and make practical changes.

She aims to empower people so they can move forward with more confidence and clearer choices.

Online support options

How client‑centred and existential approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping people find their own answers. The therapist reflects what is said, supports self‑understanding and helps people build confidence to make changes. It is useful for low self-esteem, relationship concerns and general life stress.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility. It invites people to explore what matters most to them, how they want to live, and how to face difficult feelings about loss, change or isolation. This approach can help when someone feels empty, stuck or unsure of their direction.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Litea will discuss these ideas with each person and agree together which way of working feels most helpful. The plan can be adjusted as conversations deepen and priorities shift, making the process collaborative.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which gives practical flexibility. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone works when less bandwidth is needed, and messaging can suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and to continue support even when life changes.
