About Litea

Litea Dakunimata is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with adults who are facing family strains, grief, changes in life, relationship problems, and questions about intimacy and parenting. Sessions are offered in English and German and she accepts international clients.

Her work draws on client-centred and existential approaches. That means conversations focus on what matters to the person in front of her, and on finding meaning in difficult situations. Litea listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try different ways of handling those moments.

She often supports people coping with stress, low self-esteem, anger, depression, and the fallout from trauma or abuse. Additional areas she addresses include family of origin issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, abandonment fears, and problems around communication and commitment.

Sessions are built around straightforward conversation and practical reflection. Litea aims to help people clarify what they want, notice unhelpful habits, and consider small changes that can make daily life easier. She will work with each person to agree on next steps rather than imposing a plan.

For people juggling work, family and difficult emotions, Litea offers focused, calm sessions that centre on practical coping and clearer choices. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online booking flow.

How sessions work

How client-centred and existential approaches translate to online work

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience. The counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what she hears, and helps the person identify their own solutions. This approach can support issues like self-esteem struggles, communication problems and day-to-day coping.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, responsibility and the choices people face. It helps when life changes, grief or feelings of emptiness bring up questions about purpose and direction. Conversations may explore values, freedom to choose, and how to live with uncertainty.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and is decided together. Litea will discuss what feels most useful, try ways of working, and adjust plans based on the client's goals and preferences. The process is collaborative rather than fixed.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around busy schedules and keeping check-ins short when needed. If you want to proceed, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Many people find remote sessions make it easier to keep regular appointments and to bring issues from daily life directly into the conversation.
