Background and approach

Dominic pays attention to feelings and everyday realities rather than jargon. Dominic works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, grief, depression and addiction. He also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, career shifts, and challenges linked to health or long-term conditions.

Additional focus areas include attachment issues, ADHD, and body image. His work draws on several complementary approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. He blends these with a person-centred stance to keep sessions practical and grounded.

Dominic aims to help people notice options and make choices that fit their life. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged online by following the service's matching steps. Dominic accepts international clients and uses formats that suit different lifestyles, including video, phone, chat and messaging.

How Dominic's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical strategies for managing anxiety, sleep problems and mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is about understanding and working with emotions to improve close relationships and intimacy-related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Dominic will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as therapy progresses, so the plan fits the person rather than the other way round.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls recreate face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to keep therapy going across different locations.
