He also supports those coping with parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, bipolar mood concerns and major life changes.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on what is most troubling right now and on small steps that can make life feel more manageable. His background includes a range of clinical work across emotional and behavioural concerns. That experience informs how he tailors sessions to fit the issue at hand, whether that is adjusting mood, managing anger, or addressing addictive patterns.

He pays attention to patterns that affect relationships and daily functioning. Otis works with a wide range of additional issues such as abandonment, communication problems, codependency, dissociation and the effects of trauma. He also supports people dealing with neurodiversity matters including Autism and Asperger Syndrome and complex presentations like co-morbidity and personality-related difficulties.

Otis is a BACP member, which indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. He offers sessions in English and accepts clients from outside the UK. To begin, people choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Otis uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach helps people recognise unhelpful thoughts and develop more balanced ways of thinking and reacting; this can reduce anxiety and lift low mood. Another familiar technique focuses on behavioural change - identifying small routines and actions that gradually improve sleep, reduce reliance on addictive behaviours and stabilise mood.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Otis will work with each person to match techniques to their goals, needs and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made. He treats clients as partners in planning sessions and checks in regularly about what is helping and what needs to change.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and travel. Video calls are useful for a full conversation when face-to-face contact matters, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging offers short check-ins or step-by-step support between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent while juggling daily life.
