About me

I am Dom and I see it as a privilege to be able to listen to peoples stories. I try to meet people exactly where they are in order to create an equal space for figuring their problems. I have been a fully qualified (and busy !) Person Centred counsellor for the last 7 years having begun counselling life working in Homeless peoples hostels. Ever since, I’ve been working in both the NHS setting, corporate setting and private practice which gives me a wide variety of peoples problems. I am used to every kind of story and don’t take peoples’ feelings lightly. I work completely confidentially in a safe space in line with the BACPs code of ethics and like to bring a very human aspect to the counselling relationship where real progress is made.

I truly feel heard during the sessions. It's more like a conversation with a friend who has incredible insights on your day. Therapy with Dom is exactly how I used to think therapy would be like and I love to work with him. I'm not judged and I feel safe talking to him about anything which wasn't the case with my previous experiences in my city. I couldn't imagine having anyone else than Dom from now on.

What I appreciate most about Dom is his ability to truly understand and empathize without judgment, which has made a huge difference in my journey. His expertise and dedication are evident in every session, and I leave each one feeling more empowered and equipped to face my challenges. I wholeheartedly recommend Dom to anyone looking for a therapist who genuinely cares and is committed to helping you grow.

Dominic is fantastic, I’ve had 15 or so sessions with him now and his calm and respectful manner gives you complete confidence in his ability to pick up on themes and the relevant advice he gives. He is totally honest and I look forward to speaking with him on my journey every week. I wouldn’t hesitate at all to recommend Dominic and the work he does. It’s been incredibly helpful and enlightening on how I live my life and thinking that goes on within it.
