About Altia
Altia Walters offers calm, practical support for people facing relationship strain, anxiety, low mood and difficult life changes. She writes plainly and listens closely, helping clients map small steps that lead to clearer choices. Her approach is collaborative and respectful of each person's story.
Altia has three years of professional experience and works from a background in senior management in domestic abuse services. That background means she is familiar with the practical and emotional effects of coercive control, substance misuse and other harms.
Background and approach
She also brings experience supporting people through grief, relationship breakdown and workplace stress. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change. Altia uses conversational, goal-focused ways of working alongside reflective listening.
Techniques may include working on thoughts and behaviours, practical problem solving, and building on existing strengths. She aims to help people feel more confident in their decisions. Altia is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She offers sessions in English and is available to work with people in the United Kingdom as well as international clients. Online formats include video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging. Practical arrangements use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a session is scheduled based on the person's availability and the therapist's schedule. Altia seeks to create clear, manageable plans so people can move forward at their own pace.

Approaches for online counselling and practical support
Altia uses client-centred work that focuses on the person's own goals and strengths. This approach involves listening, reflecting and helping the person make sense of their experience so they can choose the next steps. It is useful for building self-esteem, processing grief and handling relationship questions.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try out new behaviours. CBT offers practical exercises and step-by-step tasks that can reduce anxiety or low mood and improve daily routines.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable changes and on what already works. Sessions often set clear short-term goals and develop concrete plans to move forward, which can feel helpful when time is limited.
Finding the right approach is treated as a shared task. Altia will talk through options with the person, tailor methods to their goals and adjust plans as progress is made. This collaborative attitude means the therapeutic style can change as needs evolve.
Online therapy offers flexibility and a range of ways to connect. Video calls let conversations follow a familiar, face-to-face rhythm. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or where video is difficult. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need brief, frequent support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical change.
