About Dawn
Dawn Mullen is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has seven years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, grief, relationship problems, anger, depression and life changes. Dawn also supports those dealing with career uncertainty and questions about life purpose.
She draws on person-centred practice alongside cognitive behavioural therapy to make practical, step-by-step changes. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small, manageable shifts that help reduce anxiety and unhelpful patterns. She brings experience from residential rehab settings, so she is familiar with the challenges people meet after treatment.
Dawn uses mindfulness techniques to help with grounding and day-to-day regulation. Trauma-focused work and Internal Family Systems ideas inform how she approaches complicated or repeating patterns that link back to past harm. She aims to help people notice triggers and try alternative responses rather than relying on old habits.
In the room she prioritises clear conversation and straightforward tools. People can expect calm pacing, practical exercises and time to talk through setbacks. Sessions typically look at coping skills, thought patterns and behaviours that maintain problems like addiction or avoidance.
She works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Costs vary by location and sessions operate on a cancellable subscription model. To begin, clients use the site button to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on open, non-judgemental conversation and on helping the person clarify what matters to them. It is useful for working through uncertainty, low self-esteem and decisions about life direction.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression and addictive behaviours because it targets day-to-day habits and coping strategies.
Mindfulness techniques teach simple attention and grounding practices to reduce overwhelm and improve emotional regulation. These can be short exercises used between sessions to manage stress or cravings.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Dawn will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that suit those aims. The first sessions usually include a review of what feels most useful and adjustments as needed.
The original profile does not specify which session formats are offered online, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a working day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often provide clear steps for scheduling and for preparing practical aspects like time and a quiet environment.
