About Gifty
Gifty Ogene is a counsellor and psychotherapist with 12 years of experience supporting people with emotional wellbeing. She works in the United Kingdom and brings a calm, non-judgemental presence to sessions. Gifty respects clients' cultures and beliefs and aims to create a space where they can speak openly and be heard.
She has extensive experience offering grief support to bereaved relatives, carers and friends connected to hospice care. She helps people work through loss, shock and the process of reorganising life after bereavement. Gifty also has a background in supporting people with anxiety, depression and addiction-related struggles.
Gifty has worked with couples on conflict, communication difficulties, infidelity and financial tensions. Her style balances listening with practical steps to change unhelpful patterns and improve everyday interactions between partners.
Her practice draws on person-centred work to build trusting relationships, psychodynamic ideas to identify past patterns that affect present behaviour, and cognitive behavioural techniques to challenge thinking that holds people back. She focuses on clear, collaborative goals and on helping clients notice what gets in the way of their aims.
Clients can expect a steady, respectful approach that maintains professional boundaries. Gifty also offers coaching-style support for people facing career shifts, parenting strain, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related concerns. She accepts international clients and works in English.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Gifty commonly uses person-centred principles and cognitive behavioural techniques in her work. Person-centred counselling focuses on listening and creating a respectful space where people decide what to talk about; it helps when someone needs time and acceptance to sort through feelings. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviours and uses practical strategies to change patterns that cause distress, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and problem-solving.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's goals, needs and preferences. Sessions can combine different ideas so the plan matches what a client wants to change and how they prefer to work in session.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to maintain continuity of care if someone moves or travels, while keeping the focus on practical progress and the goals set together.
