About Doris

Doris Badu is a United Kingdom based therapist with 5 years of professional experience and BACP accreditation - BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists in the UK. She supports people navigating stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, low self-esteem, motivation and confidence, and related challenges such as abandonment, attachment concerns and workplace issues.

Doris has a strong interest in psychosocial factors, with particular attention to culture and ethnicity and how lived experience shapes each person’s view of themselves and their relationships. She approaches therapy from a strengths perspective, believing that each person is the expert in their own story and already has resources to draw on when working through difficulties.

Acknowledging the courage required to seek change, Doris encourages and affirms those who take that initial step. She offers a supportive therapeutic presence and works collaboratively with people to identify goals, explore underlying patterns, and build practical ways to move toward a more fulfilling life.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Flexible Online Care

Doris uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the issues she treats. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns and developing practical skills to manage stress, anxiety and low mood. These skills help people notice triggers, experiment with new responses, and build confidence in everyday situations. Another strand of her work explores relational and attachment patterns to better understand difficulties with communication, abandonment, and relationship cycles. This kind of exploration supports clearer boundaries, improved connection, and healthier ways of relating to others.

Finding the right combination of techniques is part of the collaborative process. Doris works together with each client to clarify goals, try different strategies, and adapt the approach to fit the client’s needs, values and preferences. Progress is guided by the client’s experience and the therapist’s clinical judgement.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for people with busy schedules, those living far from in-person services, or anyone who prefers remote sessions. These options make it easier to access consistent support, maintain continuity of care, and work on goals from home or wherever feels most comfortable.
