About Detti Balla

Detti Balla is a BACP registered counsellor (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) with a specialist focus on clinical and disaster-related trauma. She works as both a practitioner and an educator in areas that include PTSD, disaster trauma, compassion fatigue, critical incident response, and stress management. Her training and experience equip her to support people facing the complex emotional impacts that follow trauma and high-stress events.

Her approach centers on helping clients build practical skills and internal resources to face current challenges and dismantle barriers that block a sense of hope or peace. She views each person as the expert of their own story and seeks to draw out strengths that can drive recovery and growth. This emphasis on collaboration aims to empower individuals rather than impose solutions.

Seeking change often requires courage, and Detti frames the therapeutic process as a supported journey rather than a solitary task. She offers steady clinical guidance alongside felt practical tools so clients can work toward more fulfilling, balanced lives. When prospective clients are ready to explore that next step, she welcomes conversations about how she might assist them.

Could Online Therapy Be a Good Fit For You?

Many people ask whether therapy delivered remotely can make a meaningful difference. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life transitions, online therapy can be an effective option that supports progress and coping.

One of the clearest benefits is flexibility. Clients can choose the mode of communication that suits them best - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to weave therapy into a busy schedule or access care from a distance.

Therapists offering remote work are licensed professionals who bring their training and clinical experience to these formats, and clients may change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, accessible way to engage in the therapeutic process and work toward their goals.
