About Ornella

Ornella Tohme is a counsellor registered with the BACP and has eight years of professional experience in the UK. She works with people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, intimacy issues, parenting pressures, anger, career worries and major life changes. Sessions are offered in English, Arabic and French. International clients are accepted.

Ornella uses a Client-Centred Therapy approach. She focuses on listening and helping people find their own answers. Conversations are practical and grounded in everyday concerns. This helps when feelings of anger, frustration or overwhelm are getting in the way of work or close relationships.

In sessions she attends to what matters most to the person in front of her. She helps people talk through patterns that keep repeating, and works on small changes that ease tension day to day. She explains ideas plainly and encourages practical steps to manage strong emotions.

Ornella tailors how she works to the individual without promising quick fixes. She supports people as they test different ways of responding to stressful situations. That might include pacing discussions, practising new responses, or setting short-term goals to reduce flare-ups.

People who are looking for a straightforward, conversational style may find this approach helpful. To begin, clients follow the service matching process and schedule an initial session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Client-Centred approaches and online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of the work. It involves listening closely, reflecting back what someone says, and supporting them to make choices that feel right. This approach is often helpful for issues like anxiety, relationship strain, anger, grief and coping with life changes.

In practice this means the therapist asks open questions, mirrors feelings and helps people slow down long enough to try new responses. The aim is to help a person understand patterns that trigger anger or stress and to test small, manageable changes in how they respond. That process is collaborative - the therapist and client work together to find what fits the client’s goals and preferences.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments around work or family commitments and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins or adjust timing to suit a busy day. Confirm the current session formats when you book so you know the available options and how they can best fit into your routine.
