About Dean
Dean Audsley is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. He also helps people coping with life changes, motivation problems and issues around impulsivity and addiction.
Dean frames clients as the experts in their own stories. He listens for strengths and practical options. Sessions focus on small, achievable steps that can reduce overwhelm and support clearer decision making.
In sessions he uses client-centred ideas to follow what matters most to the person in front of him. He also draws on existential thinking to talk about values, meaning and the choices available after big changes. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with panic, rumination and sleep difficulties when these come up.
People often come to him wanting help with career uncertainty, loneliness, control issues, guilt or shame. He works in straightforward language and aims to create space for people to test new ways of responding to old patterns. The work is practical rather than theoretical, with a focus on what can be tried between sessions.
Dean accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. He asks new clients to use the service's matching process to book a first meeting. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Dean uses client-centred therapy, which means the session follows what matters most to the client and focuses on their own perspective and strengths. This approach helps when someone feels unheard or unsure about next steps and wants space to make choices.He also uses existential therapy to talk about values, meaning and life direction after change. That approach can help people weighing career shifts, relationship changes or questions about purpose. Mindfulness techniques are offered too to manage panic, rumination and sleep problems by teaching simple attention and breathing practices.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dean treats this as a collaborative process and will explore which methods fit a client's goals and preferences. He checks in about what feels helpful and adapts the mix of approaches as the work progresses.
