Dr. Doreen Fleet

Dr. Doreen Fleet is a compassionate counsellor who works from a client-centred approach. She holds BACP accreditation and brings 23 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger and depression. She treats each person as the expert in their own life and aims to build practical ways forward together.

She uses a mix of approaches, including cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness, to help people make small, steady changes. In sessions she will listen, reflect what she hears and offer tools to test between meetings. She focuses on problems such as grief, relationship strain, low self-esteem and feeling stuck in life or work.

Dr Fleet also has experience addressing trauma and compassion fatigue, and supports people dealing with panic attacks, post-traumatic stress and self-harm thoughts. She can help with issues around identity and LGBT concerns, as well as family-related pressures and parenting stress. Anger is one of the named focus areas she works with, alongside forgiveness and guilt issues.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She helps people set realistic goals and tries out strategies that fit daily life. Sessions aim to be practical and to leave people with a clearer sense of direction.

Based in the United Kingdom, she works with people in English and accepts international clients. If someone is ready to begin, they use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's unique story. The counsellor mirrors what they hear and helps people identify their own solutions, which can be useful for issues like low self-esteem and relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and tests small changes to reduce anxiety or manage anger. It often includes practical exercises between sessions to try out new ways of reacting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels comfortable, then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

For practical online benefits, confirm the exact session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow follow-ups from a convenient location. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or sessions that do not require being on camera, depending on the format agreed with the therapist.
